Got a 1992 GXE auto and recently went to the track to try her out..
Best time i could get was 17.808 at 76.90mph... how is that for a 11 year old 145,000 mile max? lol just wondering cause never taken her to the track before.

R/T .. .603
60'... 2.566
330... 7.402
1/8... 11.436
MPH... 61.17
1000... 14.880
1/4... 17.808
MPH... 76.90

 

hehe that sounds about right for an auto vg

 

Hey my VG Auto hit 16.6 in the 1/4 - stock...hope to change hat soon when I get back from my Air Force Deployment. Come and check my Max out. The performance mods that I have listed were ordered while I have been in Saudia Arabia and are waiting on me to get home.....so when I get back " it's ON like Hot buttered Pop Corn"

 

damn i hope my max gets around the early 16s late 15s. I also have the vg engine but im going to have the g-reedy exhaust, warpspeed y pipe and a cai i hope that brings me to late 15s

 

well my max in comparison 1991 gxe with 160k+ took it to the track and i ran with a fstb, that is all, and i ran stock at 16.56 @81.772 stock.. either your not looking at revs and lauching at idle, or you max is really old of age

brake torque to 2500 and release, you'll gett a better launch

 

PSAB? Been there and done that (more than I care to repeat).

 

A stock VG auto should run 16.9 without advanced timing or anything. Your 60' tells me that you spun the tires off the line. You should have a 2.4 60' ATLEAST with your VG. That will give you about a 17.4. The rest of the time is probably b/c you don't have a perfect VG. You do have a very low trap speed, which means you are deprived of horsepower for some reason. Check the usual tune up stuff like plugs, all filters, and clean your TB.

The guys that run the 16.6s and stuff stock have a perfectly maintained VG. And maybe they have advanced timing and weight reduction.

 

shhh (advanced timing and reduced weight) thats how i got 16.5

 

60' time killed that run...trap speed is also about 6mph below the avg VG. was that your only run?
