On Friday I took the G8 down to Atco and ran it for the first time. I made two passes with a 13.1 and then a 13.0 and that's the first time I've even been at the track in about 3 years so I know I can finesse that down into the 12's! I also had half a tank of gas and stock tires/tire pressure so hopefully messing with just those two factors and better driving can get me a 12.9. It's getting loose on the 1-2 shift so once I upgrade my rims I'll throw some drag radials on a pair of stock ones to eliminate that but other than some rear suspension pieces there isn't really anything left I can do to it. I'm not going to go inside the engine yet nor am I going to spray it so we'll see how low I can get for now! I definitely want to go back to Atco again before the season is over.
