Ill be there, probably only run my car once or twice since third gear will more than likely be a little bitch.

13.6@103.. That was the best of the night. Worst was a 13.8@ 102. We couldnt get the car out of a 2.1 60'. Had a blast and was really suprised by the car. Was wanting to run a 13.9 and ran a 13.6 on my 1st pass..

On a 1.94 60' my best was 13.422 at 105 bone stock with 1,200 miles. I figured with 28,000 miles it would have picked up a little. I guess not. Good runs none the less!

Edit: Did you do the 3rd gear deal?

Nope. Left the car in Normal Shifting mode. I tried sport shifting once and ran a 13.7 but I never manual shifted or held 3rd gear. I didnt know about that until 15 mins ago reading up on it on the G8 forum..

That locks it in 3rd through the traps. It's not a problem until you're in the low 13s.
