How many of you guys take your corolla's out to race city for secret sreet? And what kind of et's can you get out of a stock gts with intake and exhaust? I just picked up my gts and i want to come out and run at secret street for fun.

Please don't ae86 aren't meant for the 1/4 mile if anything try your rolla at the road coarse they have on the oval track that they have every friday night I believe.

No, I came solo. That was probabley greg and some of his buddies. Were they coupes? I have a silver hatch.

Oh and to answer the other guys guestion. You don't think that a tight road coarse like the one they had last night won't help you practice your shiffing? To me its not worth racing a 15yr old car with 100hp (maybe less) in the 1/4 mile. These cars are made to be tossed around not dragged. If you wanted a car to drag then you should have gotten yourself a mustang or some other capable sports car. Not a corolla. Hey don't think I don't like corrolas cuase I own a 87 GTS.

i thought that a corolla gts with a 4AGE will make 140 horse? That track they had set up was cool last night i have to admit, and it would give me lots of good experience. Are you going to the toyota show at charlesglen toyota tomorrow. Its at 11:00, and theres supposed to be 30 cars, mostly AE86's. Ill be there but i have to go with my dad cause i dont have insurance on my car tell next week.

Your car should be in the 18's with the stock motor. Maybe 17's if your lucky.

i put my ae86 thru te 1/4 mile on the 30th. my corolla has a smallport redtop w/ bluetop ecu, sticky tires, and no other mods. it was my first time at the track and i ran mid 17s. i think my car should hit 16s once i improve my launches.

btw, a stock ae86 has 112hp, and probably even less cuz theyre old. i think my old engine was putting out around 90hp haha.

and yea, all those silver coupes were greg and them..
