Hello 12'S at the track....

Finally on my 27th pass in the car (not all tonight of course) I made it into the 12's. It was a 12.7453 at 108.99 with a 1.8743 60'. I ended the night with a 12.53 at 109.17 with a 1.8337 60'.

Now I just have to shave another .5 seconds and hello 11's!!!!

Nice man congrats. Good luck on breaking the 11 sec mark. At least you're getting plenty of practice at the track.

GOD DAMN, your traps are pissing me off. i think its time to get some street slicks. my best a few weeks ago was 13.2@107mph. that is a 12 second MPH. i also got an assload of breakup and fuel cut towards the end of third and begninnig of fourth(damn spiking). wideband is my next mod to clear that up. i want to see 12's on my street tires

Twinturboteddy,
I would use Nitto 555 drags radials, these puppies are bad *** at the track. I let a few friends of mine borrow them and they ran their best time with these tires.

DAMN, that is quite impressive. 1.83 60' beats my best with my solid axle, posi-track beast. Anything quicker than 1.9 sec is better than 1G of longitudinal acceleration. Must be nice having a car that can pull 1G at the track AND on a skidpad!!!

What kinda boost are you running? Was she in street form (save for the ET Streets) or did you crank up the boost and add race-gas at the track? PROPS either way, 12s is certainly movin'.

mount the tires backward and watch what happens... lets say they work alot better...ive seen alot of people break axles with 555's backwards
