I live in Philly ran the car at atco raceway in n.j. I went a 15.9 stock with the car knocked a second off with the supercharger but I need traction I shouldn,t be spinning in 3rd gear but it does, got to love boost, I do think with a couple more runs the car could go a mid 14 as it sits but I'm also still learning how to launch it I'll let u all know next week when I go back to the track

yea the fully loaded models have a hard time getting down the track.

not bad.. more seat time will help out but ur trap speeds are awfully low for some reason

your e/t is right on the money, but your trap is also higher.

the OPs is low for some reason.. not sure why


trap speed is the best indication of vehicle 'potential' given its drivetrain layout and weight.

so what should trap speed be around

for an LS sport with the s/c I'd say maybe 98mph or so depending on the boost level and running e/ts around where I'm at (low 14s)

I think some seat time will help... base model ecotec 5 speeds trap around 90mph with pretty much no mods.

I trap around 101-102

Yeah with just the charger 97-98mph is about average. I was 98-99 with an intake and the s/c without any other mods. Between the ls sports and base models there is a little difference but nothing too significant.

What elevation are you at? Could play a big role in what you trap.
