You're having traction problems with a bone stock ST?

Someone probably leaked fluid on the track ...

They didn't prep anything it was stupid, the left front definitely spun for a sesecond. It looked like I was driving on dust.

Wow, no prep. Everyone racing there must have been pretty ticked off.

It's horrible to say the least, it was for "midnight madness" basically a program to keep kids off the streets. Probably not the best idea from when it began.

Anything to help young people these days is sorely needed, they're up against a Commie/Socialist world gone mad.

That sad fact aside, the track still should've been prepped.

Seems like a dead thread, but I'll post.
First time to the drag strip. It was 80 degrees but not humid, in Oregon. ZFG 92 Performance, Whipple IC and SPD DP, but I have wheel spacers. What I really noticed was the low trap speed, it really peters out once it gets above 60 mph. It was great betting the hellcats off the line, but they caught up. Left lane.

108mph is "normal" for the 91-93 octane ZFG tunes (and others). If you were able to put some e85 in your tank then you would see 110-112 mph-ish traps. Remember, aerodynamics are not friendly to the ST! It takes a lot of power to move the speedo at those speeds.

e50 tune on stock fuel system is appx 117-119mph (assuming full weight).

David posted those elsewhere a long time ago. I guess he just found this thread.

You have to love Cecil County in October with that mine shaft air. I miss it, I'm in FL now.

Is this on e50 or ?
What shift RPM? Has ZFG modified rev-limit/shift speed?
Any logging showing mass flow in lbs/min at shift limit?

I'll soon have the nostrum/stage 5 set up - can you hear the turbos? Any drivability issues?
