Well, hit the track tonight at New England Dragway. Temps were in the low 90s with fairly high humidity. First time to the track in about 3 1/2 years. Best run was my first as the track went away and wheel spin was an issue. Run details are below...

R/T .265
60' 2.045
330' 5.385
1/8 8.091
mph 92.16
1000 10.388
1/4 12.321
mph 117.24

Clearly this car is capable of an 11 second run stock in better weather. BTW, this is a base car, no Perf Pack. I had 1/2 tank of gas and ran 25psi in the tires. Unfortunately the scale was not open.

Not bad! I am heading up there Friday. Hope there is some type of track prep.

Thanks guys. Powerwheels, I got the 1-2 grind on one run. Wheel hop was non existent but there was plenty of wheel spin. This car is a blast.

My '08 has it also. I'm 99% sure it's the engine lifting causing the shifting problems with the remote shifter.(rubber mounts)
