Default 119 trap?

just wondering what you guys think a car should be around ET wise running a 119 trap, my car went 12.8 @ 119 because of traction issues.

Depends on how much your car weighs. I went 11.4s@118 launching around 5000 off a 2-step. I've also gone 11.2s@121-122 launching at 6500-6700. That was last year when my car weighed around 3300-3400 with me in it. If you get your race weight down and get the car to 60' you should run low 11s.

A M6 car normally doesn't E.T. as good as an auto car would but you should see some mid to low 11's if you can fix your traction issues. Good luck man.
