First time at strip
First time at strip
I finally made it to the drag strip yesterday. I have an 03 that I got last year in June. It has 7800 miles on it and is pure stock.
I made 6 runs with 27psi in stock F-1s and overdrive off.
Run 1 (Left it in drive)
60ft 2.07
330 5.85
1/8 8.94 @79.38mph
1/4 13.92 @98.51
Run 2 (Still in drive)
2.075
5.846
8.93 @79.34
13.91 @98.69
Run 3 (Tried manual shifting and blew 2nd)
2.04
6.07
9.34 @77.05
14.40 @97.41
Run 4 (Back to leaving it in drive)
1.99
5.77
8.83 @79.78
13.79 @98.81
Run 5 (Tried shifting again)
1.99
5.89
9.02 @78.79
14.03 @98.01
Run 6 (Left it in drive again)
2.03
5.82
8.89 @79.81
13.86 @98.65
I was very happy to run 13s but somewhat disappointed not to hit 100mph. There was a head wind so maybe without it I would have picked up the 1 or 2 mph.

It was at Milan dragway. We had a cold front come in early friday morning so the weather was real nice last night. About 70 degrees and low humidity. Now I want to get an Air box and see what the difference will be with just that mod alone. Probably will have to go in similar weather conditions to get a accurate
gauge on the performance increase from the box alone.

Like Rob said, let the trans do the shifting. You did OK, and with a little work you'll do even better, nice job. John H
