Hey my first trip to the strip MIR (Budds Creek) 60 feet elevation, 42 degrees outside



GSL-se with Racing beat header and catco cat, kn filter everything else stock

16.8 at 81 Mph.



Feels really slow anyone posting Gsl-se times? I know my reaction time was slow (1.052) my 60 foot time was 2.338 I got bumped because my dial in time was 17.0 :( OH well who else is in the slow club?

Heheh well I dont feel too bad considering I have 173,000 miles and never even pulled the intake manifold off .. HEHEH. !! Got the car for 300 bucks and even got to send a few hondas home at the track, and If I had adjusted my dial in for the cooling night air I would have sent hat damn vette home too Drat! Experience hehehe!

Ha you think that's funny.. I got a '97 Hyundai Elantra SE 5spd that's completely stock with a nasty valve clatter and a going-bad water pump that clicks, and it runs a 15.4. Course I drive that thing all kinds of messed up and the idle is kinda off ( sometimes 1200, sometimes 1700, had it up to 2000 one time).



I took it to westheimer (local racing street in houston) and dusted a bunch of Civics, a supra (old skool non-turbo), and some p.o.s. old corolla.



My friends say I should stop with the 3rd gen and make the Hyundai a sleeper.
