looking at just your mph alone you definetly have enough to get into the 12's with a good launch.

not bad, we all have to start somewhere!

As mentioned, you have the speed to clock 12s, especially looks at the 60 foot time. Keep practicing, have fun and the times will drop the more you figure out what works.

Good luck!

Sacramento Raceway? I'm hoping to go there after my long tubes and LS6 intake install. Right now I'm basically just a lid and catback car. I raced a few weeks ago at the Fallon Top Gun Raceway and pulled a 13.7 @105mph with a 2.2 60ft. How was the track in Sac? Was it the $5 wednesday thing?

I'm guessing you got yelled at for doing a burnout across the starting line.
12 second trap speeds. Throw a drag radial on and run some 12.80's next time.

Do everyone a favor and avoid the water box too when you're on street tires. Just FYI if you didn't know.

You're MPH seems low...how was your 1/8th? I am guessing you have a 80~81mph 1/8th? My stock car went 85mph in the 1/8th and 108.59mph in the 1/4. (I'm guessing you picked up more mph on the top half than I did) If you didn't have really bad air going on then your launch killed your MPH.. I would expect ~110 at least with LTs (and good air... you did say it wasn't hot..how was the DA?).
