Default Took car to the track

I took my 04 SS to the track today and my fastest time was a 15.485 at 89.10mph with a RT of .376. And my fastest RT time was a .373. I just want to know what you all think of that considering my only mods are a shift kit and flowmaster 40 mufflers with the stock "2.5" exhaust and a magnaflow glasspack to replace the resonator. Unfortunately I dont have my fastest pass on film but i do have to timeslip. I have 2 vids of other passes so hear you go! My dad raced my car against the old monte.

This is me


And here's my dad

Awesome videos! I'd love to take mine to the track sometime just to see where I'm at. I'm holding out for a few more mods though

Pretty good time as well

At first I was going to say that time wasn't so great until I realized you're running an almost stock L36. That's a great time for the mods, nicely done! I think it's a great idea to run the Monte down the track in bone stock/near stock form in order to get a baseline and see how much you improve. That's what I did.

A couple things though. Rt times aren't that interesting. It's cool that you reacted as well as you did, but it doesn't effect your 1/4 mile time at all. I'm more interested in your 60' time. Anything under 2.3 is good for a stock L36. Next, please tell me that this is just the beginning and that you're going to do more to your Monte That Momte moves really good.
