If you are running 16.8 what is the point really???

I mean honestly... Even for a stock ATX 2.4L that's almost a full second slower.

Besides why would I drive the Z24 to a Contour meet anyway.

The best I can offer is to take video of a run in her car. I feel 16 flat is doable at our local POS track.
Either that or you can find lots of video and slips on the j-body site already. It's not as if my wife's car is magically faster then the rest of them. (Heck it's almost stock - just a K&N drop-in and 2.3L pulley)

I have old slips for her LS (2.4L ATX) from the one time I took that to the track. Like I said 15.8x at 87.x mph. That had about 10HP more worth of mods to it and slightly smaller rims & tires. (205/60HR15 vs 205/55ZR16)

Like I said I have beaten one (probably due to a crappy driver, MAYBE ). I run a 16.9 and I have beaten my friend with a 2002 Cavalier ATX with the new Ecotec(140hp and 150Tq) who runs 17.3 (has intake and exhaust). So I can't see why a Zetec(MTX or ATX) can't beat a z24 (150-155hp 150tq IIRC)?
