Default A little disappointed but still drove it home..

Took my car to the track for only the 2nd time. First time was lid/catback and this time it was 3 years later with H/C/I and Textralia Clutch. Best ET was 12.15 @ 119.04 MPH with a 1.98 60'. Great trap speed for 11s, but with the 10 bolt and ET Streets I wasn't trying to grenade it. I was really concerned about getting home without breaking. Slipped the clutch ~5k on the last run of the night to get the 12.1. Next season the MWC Fabbed 9" will go in. Here is a breakdown of my best run.

1.98 - 60 ft
5.29 - 300 ft
7.96 - 1/8 ET
91.99 - 1/8 MPH
10.25 - 1000' ET
107.13 - 1000' MPH
12.15 - 1/4 ET
119.04 - 1/4 MPH

Not bad for full weight car. Get the 9in. with 4.56 gear and you'll love it.

Congrats on the new best, man. Remember, whenever you can drive home after a night of racing , it was a good night .

Yeah, my buddy was egging me on HARDCORE to launch it harder. He said he'd pay for my tow home, which was about 30 miles away. He already broke his 10 bolt a couple of years back so he knows how fragile they are behind a M6. I was dead set on driving home and not dicking around for another 2-3 hours at the track waiting for a tow and pushing it into the garage at like 1 am. I'd like it to still be driveable when I do get the MWC rear next year.

That's a very, very easy 11 in there.
