First run at the track tonight

Tonight I finally decided to go to the track and see what the max can do. The nitrous bottle is empty, so I had to run n/a which is fine. Mods: y pipe, cat back, stillen intake. Air temp in the 60's, low humidity.
60': 2.326
1/8: 9.933@72.79mph
1000': 12.850
1/4: 15.344@90.53mph

The 17" rims I have seem to be slowing me down a bit, especially with big 245 tires. Next time I'm going to put the steelies back on and do n/a runs again and hope for a 15.1 or less. Also, all 3 O2 sensors are not working, and my air intake sensor has been cut and does not work and there are 3 exhaust leaks. So after getting those fixed, the car should run a little better too. Possibly high 14s once its back in order. And then we'll work on the nitrous once this is straightened out.

Your mph is quite low. Maybe it's due to the heavy 17s? 2.32 isn't that bad for a first run at the track though.

My car is an automatic by the way, so dont expect anything crazy. My best trap was a 91.10 but a 1/4 of 17.455...I redlighted by rolling past the staging light, which started my time but then I didnt go until after green, which gave me a sweet 4.429 60' go me!
