Default I made it! First time down the 1/4 (video)

I managed to drop another 4 tenths and gain 2mph as the night went on. Here is my first run with a very shakey left foot. This car definitely has 11's in it with some drag radials and more practice.

yea it looked a little delayed. however, i think it was a good launch, with very little tire-spin.

I went 12.4 after a couple of runs that night with the stock tires. I'm pretty sure that 11's are possible with a 116 mph trap speed and DR's
