If this is the list to be on then I want to be close to the top. I will get close with stock twins and non ported motor....

Is Boostn7 the only one who ran that time with stock twins and non ported motor?

The list is a bit dated. Boostn7 is now at the top with an 11.0 something. I have an 11.69 now too so I'm on there. I will update what I have in a bit.

Here are some times we ran in New Zealand at the weekend:
My 20B JC Cosmo (stock, with street tyres) ran 14.309 at 102.25mph. Heaps of wheelspin, so the 60ft sucks...
A friend's 808/RX3 4door 12A turbo (factory stock engine) ran 13.19 at 109.5mph. This is a street car on MT ET Street drag tyres.
The ex-Australian PAC Performance 13BT RX3 coupe ran a 9.79, but its a dedicated race car.

i do slip the clutch. i hold the rpm around 4000, and when it's time to launch, i slip the clutch and floor it. i try to use the clutch to control the rpms. if i let the clutch out too fast, i'll wheel hop and if i let the clutch out too slow, it just revs higher and i don't really go anywhere.
there is a guy around here that is said to be able to launch anything. i'll let him have a go at it next time at the track.

totallimmortal: If you want your RT times down go on the last light before green! When I figured that out my RT's came way down, .5 is supposed to be ideal? Now since I know the secret, my slow RT's .8, I hope this helps, it helped me out!

Thanks i would like to bring that down, but it won't affect my 1/4 mile or 60ft times but anway that was my worst rt f the day my others were .607, .889, and .736, not great but much better than taking over a second after the light turned green

Something that will bring down your times would be a deep stage, that is when you line up, you stop as soon as the light turns on. It will give you a few more inches to get up to speed before you brake the laser and start you time. Their is shallow and deep stageing. Iam NOT an expert, just read abou it before.

It may be the other way around deep being closer to the line and shallow being farther from the line, either way if you stop as soon as the light comes on you will have a few inches to get going before starting the clock! That will bring your time down slightly.

Deep staging would get your reaction time quicker but 1/4 time slower and the other way around for not going deep.

Usually used by people that bracket race a lot. Basically you don't have to have a quicker car to actually beat someone at the track. For example a low 14s car can beat a mid to high 13s car.

Yes, it's all about driver consistency in bracket racing. I guess what i was trying to say is that by deep staging it's possible to win the race even if you don't bracket race. If you get a quicker reaction time and take off better you can get across the finish line quicker while still having a slower ET time than your opponent. So basically winning the race with a slower elapsed time.
