Let me just say, those 4/10ths of a second ain't no joke. Unless you weren't spraying, do you have other big plans?

You ran a 12.4 on a shot? How small of a shot? Street tires? What's up with that?

theres two 1/4 mile strips here in lubbock, lubbock raceway (idalou) and doloca motorplex (doloca)...but run your car in houston and get the good times while you still can in that low *** DA. These tracks here dont even come close to baytown's stickage

Good luck with your 11 . I tried for my 12 this last friday an only hit a best of 13.6 @ 104 with a 2.2 60' . i spun way past the 60'. i just really need to learn to launch with the stall, I hit some 2.1 60' when i was stock. I only ran 3 times & on my 3rd run the tranny got stuck in 2nd during the burnout, so i launched in 2nd with out knowing it then hit the rev limiter at the end of the track.

Nice time, us West Texas guys have trouble getting respect with our poor weather conditions..lol

I've got mine running alright though, i'm sure a 12.5x-12.6x is possible for me with my last couple of bolt-ons (TB and pulley) on DR's with the cooler air in the next month or so. Then i'll get a little more serious.

You guys need to come down to the Midland/Odessa area and run at Penwell sometime, I get tired of seeing all the same ol' LS1's down here! haha

I plan on coming down to Penwell once im hitting low 12.s . I have an old friend gone bad (Phillip Weaver) that does nothing but talk **** about my car (jealousy i guess). how his car will beat mine & all my other f-body friends asses. first off his is a dedicated race car trailer queen that only runs 12.2s-12.4s . if you go out there you've seen him he has the red with black stripes '74 Nova sponsered by E&R automotive (its something like that). I cant wait to stomp his *** in my daily driver then get out and stomp HIS *** again.

Thats cool, I'm going to try to come to Wall before the season is over since Wall is usually a couple tenths faster than Penwell, when is the last TNT or race?

And, i've seen that Nova before I believe.. i'll have to tell some of my buddies with LS1's there that run 11's (and drive them everyday) to run him at the track since he thinks he'll smoke all the F-bodies..
