didn't david colmen run like 16 flat in his k8

I believe it was mid 16's and his car was NOT stock. Like another poster said above... he's breakin the laws of physics.

My best time was a 16.1, and thats all stock.
But I had to completley gut it to get that low.

Barry! Thats not stock...Thats minus stock stuff. LOL And I think Dave was a 16.02? He was runnin phenolic spacers and somethin else.

=no Im not, my best time was 15.00, I was runnung a ZE, Crapsport ECU, stock exhaust, no air filter or air box, and iceing down the intake manifold between runs, and running Kumho 712's on stock 15 rims. But Im a crappy drag racer and I had 2 tool kits and a cooler if ice in the trunk as well as my spare tire and jack with full interior. (basicly just off the show room floor.)

i could have sworn there was a mid-14 posted under your name in the drag board, it was either last year or early this year

nope not me.

Well, my best was a 16.627 @84 with just a k&n and 2.5 inch apex exhaust.

are the 16.6 times with the k8 or what engine? ne one know what a american spec 2.5L mx-3 should run with an intake and exhaust?

Probably mid 15's

mx6ls/pgt do mid 15s, more like low 15s when you learn how to drive

what about with the kl-de, intake, exhaust, no rev limiter, and everything stripped out of the car except the drivers seat and dash? i mean spare tire, rear seats, p***enger seat and everythign gone except one seat and the center console and dash, with stock 15's on it?

can ne body guess what it would run?

My buddy paul runs a ZE, k8 ECU, stock exhaust,mx6 VAF.
HE runs high 14's. His best run is a 14.8, on 15" BBS wheels. And thats with a plain cone filter on the VAF.

if he has a stage two clutch, intake, and a nice tire that was maybe a little smaller than stock, but was real sticky, and if his cat has no guts. its possable that he pulled it off. you cant base everything purly off of physics. especially when refering to cars, there are too many thing that have to be taken into concideration.

my pops 66 chevell had a small block 400 all STOCK totaly stock, he did some minor adjustments to the carb and timing, he was running mid to high 13s and other cars such as camero with a built 454 and possi rear barley came close to his chevell, and the chevell is somewhere around 1K lbs heaver. you cant ruel anything out based off of physics but you can ask for proof.
