I must be getting bored with all this crappy weather in IL. But was wondering if anyone ran their car as soon as they got it or waited a while. I had 525 miles on mine when it made its first pass down the quarter mile. I had to change the oil before i went and raced it.

I've got 140 miles on mine and would be racing it if there was a strip anywhere close to me open.

I actually ran across you down at Beech Bend when you ran your 12.62. I was running my black Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 8.

I had about 72 miles on mine once I hit the track. That mileage was home from the dealership then the drive to the track

OrangeChevyII · 12-22-2009, 09:51 PM

About 80 miles for me. Drove from the dealer to my house Thurs night. Drove to work and the track Friday night. Got it dynoed at the track (HMP) then took a few runs on the 1/8 mile. Couldn't drive for s@#t!!

2010 SSRS · 12-23-2009, 09:59 AM

I driven mine like I was at the track and I only have 200 miles.

69 miles for me, pretty much from dealer - dyno - dragstrip

SRT10KLLR · 12-29-2009, 10:10 PM

45 kilometers when it was picked up from the tuner after the headers went on then add about 35 kilometers combined more for the drive home then drive to the track. So about 80 kilometers for first runs down the 1320.
