    Before I offer a guess, how good are your track driving skills, and what kind of rear suspension are you running?

    Well heck, my 1st guess was picked already. Frank beat me to it. I guess I'll play Price is Right and pick 14.19.
    14.19 :)

    15.20@79mph. Street tires and mufflers are going to hurt. Extra 100 pounds in trunk will slow you a .10th. Stick shift, 3.00 rear will be slow off the line. I doubt you'll get much past 3rd gear.:) The main thing is to have fun and come back in one piece. Then you can try to improve each time you go.

    High 14's to low 15's the gear is what really hurts.
