An auto AU Forte sedan should do around 16.4 for the 400m on average.

I could go a lot faster but....

1. I cant drive (my first time at the drags - never been before - not even to watch).

2. Very soft launches hurt my times. I have a 3.08 open wheeler (hmm, your 2.1s 60' times vs my 2.4s)

Yes well er 15.6 at 90mph as the sig says.

I could only get 16.8 out of the fairmont wagon when stock and new so why don't you see how you go with the forte stock.

Check the timeslips see how other people are really going. The timeslips not the Gtech or other wannabe wish stuff posted up. Remember no one posts up their first slip or worst race so don't worry about the time just give it a try.
