I ran the exact same thing(12.7x@108.x) with 00Z28 with 3000 stall(2.73), Lid, DR, cutout. A tune would be great. You should go for the stall.

Nice run. Definitely killed the boxcar. Shame your video person fell down at the end of your run...must have been an alchohol related incident.

^Does'nt anyone ever figure out how to zoom and focus on the boards?

Nice run, looked pretty smooth, no wasted time or effort. Definitely a good kill.

^^ Tell me about it guys. My brother took the video of that run. When I saw it I was cracking up thinking the same thing "What did you get drunk while I was in the staging lanes?"

[QUOTE=Sparetire]^Does'nt anyone ever figure out how to zoom and focus on the boards?

I agree, why is it so hard to zoom on the time board. They must be using digital camera without a zoom....

The SRT8 ran a 14.0. He had a CAI. Yes it was a SRT8 and not an RT. He just blew it an could not recover, probably with that shifter the cars come with. I doubt he would have done better than a 13.5 with a better 60'.

My 60' was 1.91, nothing to write home about.

I have a CAI, I doubt it it adds anything. DR's are the best mod for a GTO. This car has run 12.9 without the CAI and the DR's.

Oh that suks. SRT-8s are faster in when left in 'D'. Mess w/ the shifter, and your times drop. R U the same guy posting this in Charger forums? Or is someone else taking credit?

Why not better than a 13.5? Low 13s are the norm and they trap at 108-110mph. On DRs he could beat you.....

I have a stall that needs to get installed, a Yank SS3600 plus drag bags and giggle gas. I should be in the 11's next year.

Duecce I doubt it unless I screw the launch up. The car has a couple more tenths in it. I'm leaving from idle, if I brake rev it I sure my 60's would drop.
