I also got my thiccc girl weighed in



You'll get better times with stickier tires and practice. You are lighter than my heifer by quite a bit. Is this Carolina Dragway? Not too many 1/4 mile drags around here.

That's a pretty good time though I would think with street tires and a manual.

No disagreement there.

Next mods are wheels/tires! And possibly 1 piece driveshaft. I’m not trying to build a drag car. I just go to the track for fun. It’s probably my 4th or 5th time at the track. Probably been less than 10 times in my life. So I’m definitely NEW. And yes the track is in Hartsville.

Oh nice,I'm going to check that out for sure. Tires go a long way. Best tire I found on 20 inch wheel is Mickey Thompson Et streets. I turn all others directly into smoke in almost every gear.

I see you have a 2010 as well. To my knowledge our cars did not come with a output shaft support bearing in the transmission. The output shaft can and will break at some point without this. I broke mine at 650hp doing a clutch drop on street tires. Some people snap it at less power. So look into putting this piece in or atleast be aware of this failure point. I was not and the car was down for 5 months while Tick Performance rebuilt my transmission.

Thread with more info.
