Default 12.602 @ 111.342

first trip to a 1/4 mile track was this evening. the local track is an 1/8. Mods are in my sig and this was on 245 all season tires. i still think i can get a little more out of it, even on those tires. for the mods since my last 1/8 mile pass, i think i should be closer to 8.0 at that point.

anyways, its a work in progress, but i'll post the slip.

feel free to voice opinions on the trap speeds and times, like i said, today was my first quarter mile pass.

This winter I'm planning to do a 9" and I will definitely get rid of the all seasons after that. Driveshaft and torque arm are included in that. Would the relo brackets really help? I'm at stock ride height. Planned to do those when I do stranos

Thanks guys. I'll get the brackets when I do my 9". I really wanted to see 11.99 with slicks but only made one pass and didn't launch hard enough. She fell on her face once it hooked lol
