Knocking on 11's Door!!!

I ran a 12.0024 @ 114.62 mph. At this point I think I just need to pray and that will get me into the 11's...


On a side note I won the Import Bracket race tonight also:D

11's

The easiest way is to like you said just pray. However there is a few methods proven over time to work on any car. 1st- pre stage the car and when the first bulb is lit just nudge the car forward until you barely engage the stage bulb, since the clock does not start until the optical path is broken staging shallow means you will get more time on the launch before your fron wheel clears the beam, a rolling start, it may be inches but you'd be suprise how much it helps. Also this is kinda of cheating but if your car is low enough to the ground you can put a peice of black plastic or vinyl or something else and install it unde the car from the front wheel back as far as you like or can get away with, this will increase the rolling start even more That last one is kinda b.s. but it works we did it just to try it on a friends 56 chevy and it lost like a half second on time, but who wants to have false times that ruins the hobby.
I hope no ricers are reading this because the undercar strip will be there new first mod!lol

Awesome times! Thats a really good 60' too, I wish I could get mine anywhere near that. Stock motor and turbos? Thats even better then.

Just to warn you, your pic in the sig is waaaay to big. Mods will get pissed.
