Default I think I can say it's a 12-second car now..

My Formula has run enough 12's now that I feel comfortable calling it a "12-second" car... ran a new best on Saturday morning.

12.868 @ 105.90 mph (60': 1.782)

I also ran...
12.914 @ 105.05 mph (60': 1.779)
12.933 @ 105.23 mph (60': 1.801)
12.974 @ 100.86 mph (60': 1.779) (in competion, I was coasting across the finish line)

Power mods are...

Lid, Yank SS3200, 3.42 gears, and a Dynomax muffler. The motor is still bone stock and untouched.

For a complete mods list and more info about the car, go to this page.

Yeah... but that's pretty much the last step. Next thing I have planned is headers & full exhaust.

Very nice. If your "drag car" Formula is now finally a solid 12 second car, what does your "street car" WS6 run? How about the GTO?

Maybe one of these days you can get them all into the 12s. That would be ultra-cool.

The GTO ran 14.5s when I took it to the track, with craploads of wheel hop.

The WS6 ran 14.2s with a bad clutch... questionable fuel pump... they both failed within 150 miles of it running at the track.

I suck at driving a stick at the track, and I don't see any point in taking them back to the track.
