ill be going to the track in a few weeks for fun and a couple grudge runs.
my toughest run will be against a local fox body stang with a mild cam and exhaust.
for those of you who have been to the track before, I have a few questions:
what rpm did you launch at?
what were your shift points in each gear?
did you go into 5th or ride out 4th to get the best time?
should i brake bost the car at the line? (if that's not the proper term please correct me). im referring to holding the rpm, letting out the clutch, and standing on the brakes to keep the car from moving forward, yet still build boost.
how hard did you shift into 2nd gear? thats the only tricky shift for me as it is so notchy.
should i take a practice run, then immediately run the mustang? i read a topic recently where one poster said his best tiems came when he ran the car back to back
how long should i let the car cool after the 90 minute drive to the track? should i ice down the TMIC?
this will be my very first time at the track with any car at all. what other advice can you give me specific to the MS6??
thanks in advance. ill have a video of the run...im hoping to hit between a 13.9-14.2 @ around 96 mph
