Default 06 GP vs Acura TL

Man i went to the dragstrip in fayetteville, NC right...and first i was up beside a old skool charger humming at me. I was like mannn please dont run with me...later up the line an acura pulled beside me, i was like Yessss I got this!!! go we get up to the lite and i was sooo worried about gettin off the line fast and killing him out that i wasnt even lookin at the tree. so when we get off its neck and neck, i'm like dang cuz he's keepin up using his quick shift. so right that the end u couldnt tell who won. got my time sheet and he beat me by .200th of a second....i was pissed. looked at my reaction time i had a 1.2, i'm like wtf..... so hoping ill see him around and get a second chance to show him a real race =P

nope...cl-s a/t is the same as a new tl a/t, but a cl-s with just headers or a stock cl-s 6 speed would take out a stock new TL/lightly modded GTP. I'm running 14.4 1/4 mile @ 98mph. Lowest I've seen for other cars with my mods is 14.27 @ 98mph. What was your 1/4 time and what was the a/t TL's?




The TL M/T is about 2-3 car lengths faster due to gearing and lightweight. The regular TL M/T is actually faster then the TL-S A/T. TL-S M/T is no joke...equal to a IS350 from a roll and actually beats the bmw 335i and IS350 on the track

ouch. what is your 1/8? do you have a timeslip handy. im just wondering when you would start pulling back. if you could post all your times it would be cool.
60'
330'
1/8th-mph
1000'
1/4th-mph

I don't have the timeslip on hand cause my g/f threw it away Even if I had it I wouldn't be able to post a pic...I'm at work lol

But anyways here is what I ran:

60' 2.3
1/8 9.4
1/8 77mph
1000' was 12.1
1/4 14.4
1/4 98mph

All these numbers are rounded since I don't have the timeslip

I'll be ahppy to hit 14.0. My cold air intake is arriving tuesday. Then all I will get a crank pulley. If that doesn't help then I guess I'll need a throttle body spacer, plenums, and intake manifold spacer
