I must be a bad driver or something. I see a bunch of people hitting low 12's and claim to have just bolt ons. I have bolt ons plus a TR220 cam. My runs were on stock F1's and I could not get out of the 2.0x's for a 60 foot. With a 113.84 MPH, should I be quicker than a 12.75?

Need more info. What rpms are you launching at? I can tell ya one thing for sure, you need better tires.

I was launching barely above idle so I wouldn't spin. I plan on getting MT ET street radials this spring. I am hoping the rear holds up.

I also swapped the cam and am running a 231/237 598,595 112LSA now. That should drop the times a little.

I assume the next things to consider are suspension, rear end, gears to help with the times. I am just wondering if you guys think I should have done better?

Nope, I think with those tires and lack of traction from more power you did ok. YOu can run much quicker but even good drivers need to run at the track more and learn what works in each car. Low 12's with drag radials would have been no problem.

What psi do you have in the tires? I run 23 rear & 40 fronts. I launch at 1200 rpm. Shift @ 6000rpm. 12.8 @ 110 on yokohamma street tires.

I was pretty close to those numbers. low 40's front and around 25 in the rear.
