Any body have a rough guess on what a stock 95 se 5 spd will run at mile high elevation. My stock 91 ran 16.7 here. Come on guys let's see how close you are!!!

Please tell me the exact track, city, and state you will be running at.

Also, what kind of 91 Maxima did you have? VG 5spd or Auto? Was it 100% stock? No advanced timing, gutted interior or removed spare, or other tinkering.

What were the conditions when you ran this time? Temperature is most important.

Also, tell me the exact date that is on that timeslip.

I can't guess accurately until I know these things. Thanks.

Okay my 91 was a vg 5spd with no spare tire and tires aired down is all done to it. The track is in albuquerque new mexico, I believe it's the duke city dragway. I had to drive 35 miles to get there and the car was extremly hot. And it was my first time ever running a car at the strip. It was night and the temp was low to mid 80's. date was may 17, 2003

Reaction time .236
0-60 2.383
E.T 16.974
Trap speed 81.113

Is there anything extemely bad about this or anything I need to really work on for when I run my 95??

Thank you guys so much

16.9 is a very good time for a VG 5spd. Good job. The elevation there is 5600 feet. OUCH. My guess is that it might be possible to get a 16.1 with your stock VQ 5spd. So, anything between 15.9 to 16.3, I would be happy. You'll have to get a really good launch to get those times though. Good Luck.

I ran 15.0 in my '98 5spd 1st and only time to the track with it stock...so you can do that.
my car's heavier too.

15.0 is respectable...14.8-.9 is good IMO

Not at 5600 feet he wont.

I am going to guess you will run 16.0 @ 86mph.

hehe, that's right. Good guess BTW.

I love this guessing game. I've been drag racing so long and have been logging my results while I bracket race during the season. I've learned a lot with bracket racing. Since one hundredth of a second is EVERYTHING.
