Default Lifting front tires

I was wondering what is the slowest E.T. you have heard of with someone lifting the front tires off the groung during the launch. I think i saw 1 at 12.46.

My cousins Caprice 9C1 pulled the front left on 13.8 runs - 254RWHP/307TQ

It's all in the suspension.

That is one clean looking 4 eye. FWIW I pulled the left front on a 12.8 pass. All in the suspension. -Mark
