Default 12.88 @ 108.09

Well, it was the first time out with the SS to the track, got 3 runs in (2 with it misting) before being rained out. Pretty please considering the crappy weather (70% humidity)and 10-12mph headwind (check the tire smoke in last vid). I was the only idiot that came out...lol. The track was prepped pretty good but it needed some rubber laid down, more traffic to really hook like it should have. I had to baby it off the line, where normally I can flat foot it and dead hook on the street.... Being the only one out there and rain threatening, I hot lapped 5 runs in 20 mins.... Here are the slips and vids.

Daaayum, that's pretty good ET for a stock car with a tune.

Yessir! Bone stock with a tune. I tried pulling the paper filter and the car went into reduced power mode mid track. Threw the filter back in and ran the 12.88. Wish I could have let the car cool down and drop some tire pressure. 40lbs wasn't hooking well...lol. I'll be back over there within the next 3 weeks. I'm coming back with a 12.6x damn it. I have seen many of these stock cars run 1.8 to 1.9 short times.

Thats awesome for tune only, hot lapping, and that weather! I'd bet you'll hit your goal with better air and a good cool down between runs. Very impressive, Rhino!

Im happy with it, and yeah the mph is awesome. Actually I think it will trap 1-2 mph higher in the right conditions. But it doesn't look like I'll be going back before they shut down, between their schedule and mine at work, its a no go. Oh well, next visit will be with lt's at least.
