Went to Rockingham Sunday

Well I was asked to go with a local car club to rockingham sunday the 12th. Keep in mind right now I am totally stock but I only ran twice because my front potenza's are almost bald after 8500 miles and the track was so slick it wasn't worth running on for me. I have went there 5 times and my worst 60' time ever was my first 1/4 run which was a 2.32. Since then I normally averaged a 2.19-2.20 and sometimes 2.15's. BTD is a 2.13 on potenzas. I am ****ed about my times but fairly pleased with my traps. I ran 2 14.7's blah @ 96.09 and 96.23. My 60's were horrible coming in at a whopping 2.47 and 2.49 I know how to launch my car but that day they must have forgotten to prep the track b/c traction was not there. Pilot sport a/s are on order now

Well that was on bald street tires and I have never seen that track in such bad shape. I literally had to take off so easy by the time I could go full throttle it would have shifted to 2nd. I will have the slicks in fayat. and no doubt in my mind 13's just not sure how low of a 13 its going to be. Matt

I couldn't tell you b/c the conditions are always different. I normally stall the car to 1500 and ease on the throttle until I feel the car has traction and go full throttle. Its hard to explain you just have to go experiment and see for yourself works best. Matt

babyblu is full of it

People like you baby mess up this site. You are full of ****! I know that I speak for atleast a few of us here when you say you ran 96 mph traps stock is bull. Almost 13's you say out of a totally stock maxima I doubt it. You are a bull**** artist and anyone with half a brain knows it. Find another site. This site is intended for people who can be honest and help each other out. Not for punks like you.

While the trap speed is high for a 14.7 you have to look at the rest of the slip. His 60ft times were horrible. That trap speed is one of a mid 14 second car. I don't see any BS the times or trap speeds. BTW no where in his post was a 13 second stock maxima mentioned

If your soo worried about the fact that someone may be BSing you on the forums, you need to find something a little more entertaining to ***** about. You have no standards to base the fact that blu didn't run a 13 stock.

I am not saying he did, I am not saying he didn't. But quit your *****ing about it. This is a stupid thing to argue about. Are you going to BS me if I tell you that I have driven from here to Raleigh NC (from ATL) on one tank of gas? (I have by the way - It's called drafting).

All I am saying is don't worry about it. If you disagree, dont' reply to the post. If you believe it, then congrats to him.

Just to set the record straight I have seen Matt run a 14.3 with just an intake and UDP, and a 13.9 with the addition of slicks. So if you think that 13's are unobtainable from a nearly stock maxima, my friend you are sadly mistaken.

well i for one dont want you speaking for me. i was there, i know what happened. why would he lie when he had about 15 org people there. if someone bsed a run while i was there, i would call them out just for fun. oh yeah, just so you know he wasnt completely stock. he had a tranny cooler that i put on a few days before. i put a tranny cooler on too, but maybe i should have gotten the bigger one.
