A big factor in your final 1/4 mile time is due to the air temp and your launch.

If you were 'saving the tranny' and launched from idle, you could have left at least 2-3 tenths of a second on the table.

Also, there can be as much as a 3-4 tenths difference between running your car in 80*+ weather and 40-50* temps.

I haven't taken my stock '96 SVX L to the track, and I won't until sometime in the September/October time frame. I'm going to wait for the cooler temps to come so my time will be as low as possible...
