Default 12 's for the first time!!!

I just ran 12's for the first time. My car is a 2000 Z28 A4 with several bolt on's. LT's ORY, LS6 intake, pulley, catback and a sweet tune by SLOWHAWK! I'm very happy with my time's I ran 12.8 on three seperate runs. I think If I had some drag radials I could have run a 12.6 - 12.7. and best of all my 10 bolt held together!!

Nice job! You're still taking a chance throwing drag radials on with the 10-bolt but not nearly as bad as if you were running an M6. Some Nittos shouldn't hurt. I'd start worrying if you go to MTs, though, especially if you gear/stall it.
