NEED SOME HELP
I AM NEW AT THIS WHOLE THING. I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR ABOUT 3 OR 4 MONTHS NOW AND I TOOK IT TO THE TRACK FOR THE FIRST TIME FRIDAY NIGHT, IN EL PASO TX, 3700 ALTITUDE, AND RAN A 14.5 IN THE QUARTER MILE. I HAVE THE AIR RAID INTAKE . I AM WONDERING WHY THE HELL IT WAS SO BAD. BECAUSE THESE CARS ARE SUPPOSED TO RUN 13 FLAT RIGHT?! I HEARD THAT THE COMPUTER DOESN'T LET THESE CARS PERFORM AT THEIR FULL POTENTIAL UNTIL THEY ARE BROKE IN AROUND 5000 MILES?! IS THAT TRUE AND WHAT OTHER MODS CAN I DO TO MAKE MY CAR A LITTLE FASTER?

Well at 3700 altittude you won't hit a 13flat even with alittle help from the intake. What was your 60' time sounds like your Launch isn't to good. And were you in Autostick or regular D.

I KNOW THAT I WON'T HAVE A 13 FLAT BECAUSE IM NOT AT SEA LEVEL BUT I SHOULD BE DOING A LOT BETTER THAN A 14.5. IM IN D. I HAVEN'T TRIED IT WITH THE AUTO STICK. I REALLY APPRECIATE THE FEED BACK
