I am heading up to Gilliam Friday night for Test N Tune. I want to get a base line run on what my QC can do before I start modding! Any guesses on my 1/4 time? 100% Stock. I hoping for 13.8-13.9

Definitely post up your times. But, I would figure right around 13.8. Just control your launch off the line. I found the best method for me, was to take off at about half throttle for the first 5 - 10 feet and then just mash it down. I found if I floor it off the line, it would spin way too much. But, it also depends on how they prep th etrack. Also, alot of people here recommend to put it in Tow/Haul mode, to keep the transmssion from shifting into overdrive. Have fun, be safe and good luck.

Well made it up to the track. The tree was broke, everything got hit by lightning! So no slips either. Towards the end they got the tree working and the times on the board working. I got stomped by my buddy in the G8. I did manage to beat a supercharged ford harley truck with exhaust! The temp was 74, humidity was 92%. Not good weather for anyone running! I will get a video up in a few days of the Supercharged Ford VS my Stock SRT-10. All in all it was fun, but sucks without a slip!

SURE DID! HUMIDITY WAS 92% plus! Can't make any power in hot conditions. My buddies also ran 14's in the Pontiac G8 and The Mustang Mach1.

Could be the entire track electrical system got hit by lightning. Everything was broke when I arrived. Maybe it was off by 1 sec for everyone!
