15.308 @ 91.34, Stock '05 MCS
Only mod is 205/50x16 Goodyear Eagle F1-GSD3 tires.
This was my best run of the night:
60' 2.484
1/8 9.927 @ 73.11 MPH
1/4 15.308 @ 91.34 MPH
Quite a bit of wheelspin on the launch, but at least the car felt like it was moving pretty well compared to some of my earlier attempts.
On my first run I forgot to turn the traction control off. It bogged on the launch and the first two shifts for a stunning 17.264@85.31 .
This was at sea level at Portland International Raceway tonight, approximately 60 degrees outside.

A couple of other notes:
- Runs were at full weight with almost a full tank of gas.
- I was running stock tire pressures.
- I took a water spray bottle and sprayed the intercooler down between runs.
- Launches were around 2500-3000 RPM with quite a bit of wheelspin, with the best run still spinning pretty bad, but moving the car well while spinning. I had a few runs where it just spun in place and didn't move. I also experienced a bit of wheelhop on several runs.

Wow congrats on the times from a stock motor as well, wheelhop can be solved by poly bushing the bottom wishbones, wheelspin can be solved by drag radials or slicks, you would gain 3/10s on the 60 ft so maybe squeeze a 14, but look for the clutch to peg out at some point (or is that just the way I drive)
