yeah those times a pretty decent for a 2.4 automatic btw your car is nice and clean
I've seen better, but i've seen worse as well.... overall not too bad, try running some smaller, lighter wheels with better tires and low pressure (15-18psi). You're 60' times are pretty good, but could still be a little better. Not too bad for an 84.9 trap speed, means with the car at the same weight the best you're really able to do is a high 15. Try tires like i said and maybe some weight reduction (passenger seat is only 4 bolts, rear lower seat doesn't weigh much at all but its easy enough to take out so why not? Same goes for spare tire and trunk carpeting. After that you'll just need to try some heavier mods or taking some trips out to a track at a lower elevation (atco and etown in jersey are both very close to sea level)

slobra (1quickj) thanks for the compliment on the looks of my car
pretty much done exterior recently painted my mirrors and door handles but thats it
and Jersey Jay 1.8T
I know the wheels hurt I ran with my 17's and I recently went to an 1/8 mile track about the same elevation and played with fuel pressure and got my 1/8 down .1 sec
and as for the spare its gone and I have lightweight racing seats could take out the rear though.
but its hard to launch an auto since the brakes won't hold the car over 2500 rpm
I didn't spin hardly any very very litte, bristol is a sorta slow track
there was a sunfire gt 5 speed with ported tb ported intake manifold header and 3 inch exhaust his best run was a 16.7 and another stock 99 Z auto it ran 17.9!!
didn't seem right to me , but by the nhra altitude adjustment it has my car running very low 15's , just not sure
thinking about doing the secret cam swap next its fairly cheap for the hp
