1G-specific 9.3 @ 73 mph 1/8

car is stock (well some free mods )and first runs down the track since i got it . was in the 10's till i got to know the track and the car. best run was 9.3 @73 mph with 1.9 60' on a 1/8 mile track so thats about a 14 sec run i think in the 1/4 .

That's pretty close to what my friend ran on his stock laser. It was stock other than the boost a couple pounds higher. He ran 9.539 @ 77.680 with a crappy 60' time of 2.375.

i dont think im hitting as hard as i should on the top end .i think it has more to offer being stock. the car really didnt feel 100% . pretty sure i could of scored a 9 flat. most of my 60' times were around 2.3 or higher learning how to let the clutch go , i kept bogging down from the start

Have you checked for boost leaks? What rpm were you shifting at?
