Message	I've taken 3 different street cars to the track, a 90TT, an LT1 camaro, and a 2L WRX. All three performed less than they could have. Some I'm sure is driver error, some is track condition, some is just car inconsistansy. If you had 100 runs I'm sure on one of them you would get that 12 second run your looking for. If you looked around at the other cars at the track I'm sure you noticed alot of them were underachieving as well, thats just racing. All that being said a 114mph trap is impressive and shows the potential of your car. I just recently raced an LS6 powered gutted 240sx that also trap 90 at the 8th. That car was awfully fast, so yours must be too.
