Looks like you and I are neck and neck Shane. I ran between 12.72-12.76 @ 109 yesterday, best was 12.72 @ 109.39. Oddly enough that run was with my worst 60 ft of the day, 1.95 while spinning the Nittos a bit. Are you on regular rain tires? If so then that's pretty impressive.

Do you have a black LS1 Z28? If so then I raced you, you ran a 12.75 to my 12.73. If I hadn't redlighted then we would have been looking at each other all the way down the track, good race.

haha yes i did...lol...that was a close one for sure but i ran a personal best of 12.68 and im REALLY happy with that time for as little mods as i have...im going for a 12.2 bolt on only time because i have an ls6 intake for it and im still gonna get an UD pully and ram air and take about 100 lbs or so out so hopefully with good weather its doable ! next time ill talk to ya i didnt know who u were.

My personal best also happens to be 12.68, but that was with 2.73 gears and a Yank 2800 stall. Now I have 3.42s and a stock converter so I had to change my sig. Maybe when you get your LS6 intake and I get a tune we'll line 'em up again.

You swapped out the yank and put in a stock 'verter?
Did the yank break?

The converter didn't break, the rest of the trans did. When I had it rebuilt they wouldn't warranty it with the converter in there so they threw in a stocker. It was unexpected and I needed the car back so I didn't have time to go out and buy a new Yank, Vig or Circle D converter.
