Fist time at the track

Fist time at the track
I took out my spare tire and jack...Front tires at 20PSI, and rears at 45PSI.
My first run was a 14.94 @ 92 mph. My next run was a 15.45 Ha! After that I ran consistent 14.9's the rest of the night. I shifted my car manually from 1-3, and it seemed that I got a quicker 1-2 shift than what the tranny does itself. The 2-3 shift feels the same. All in all it was a fun night. I'm hooked! I'm going again soon. Is 14.9 typical for a stock auto? Any tips? Here's my best time slip in a nutshell.
RT - .725
60 - 2.3
1/8 - 9.66
1/4 - 14.91
MPH - 93.19

Manually shifting is better for you car. But you should try both just to see. I believe you can shift closer to redline if you manually shift it. I know the 03 Maxima SE I rented I had to manually shift it to 6500rpm otherwise it would upshift around 6000rpm. Is that how yours is?

Nice times! Yeah ill agree with the rest 20psi is too low for the fronts. Id try bumping it up to 25-30psi. Try that, pull the spare, jack, trunk carpet, rear seat, pass seat if its simple.
Id remove mine, but being power with side airbags, its just too much work for me.

Yeah, pay it off. My wife and I just bought it a few months ago. I'll add little performance mods here and there until its payed off. Then who knows. I'm not one for visual mods or stereos. I plan on taking it to the track more and more to try to beat my times.

I'm curious how quick I can get my stock car. The next time I go to the track I'm taking out all that is reasonably possible. To me that includes the passenger seat, rear seat, spare tire, jack, and trunk carpeting. To me its reasonable if I can take it out and be able to put it back in within about an hour. That's just me.
