Finally! - 12.85 @ 111

Hey guys,

Got a few runs in yesterday, nice cool day @ 400' DA...finally hit 12's!

Best run= 12.85 @ 111, 2.02 60'
Average run= 12.9 @ 111, 2.0X 60'

Previously could only manage 13.1 @ 109 with a higher DA and 2.17 60'.

Since installed a SSRA (AC version), BMR panhard, also TOYO drag radials seem to have gotten much stickier with a little wear, was hooking a lot better than when new (consistent 2.0 60' vs 2.1-2.2), but as a result, car bogged a little off the line most runs.

Trap speed says I should be lower 12's, but go easy on me, it's a 6 speed on the stock 10-bolt

Here's a view from the gopro:

Cheers,
Alex

Welcome to the 12's! What was your mph before you installed the SSRA?

Before SSRA, ran 109mph in a little higher DA...you can definately feel it in the top end...I'd say it's worth a 1-2mph gain...I could see it being more beneficial once I go H/C/I

Nice! I currently have the K&N FIPK but I ordered the 104mm lid and I plan on getting the CHRS 1313 or the FTRA.

Nice, either one should work good. I went with SSRA because it's plastic, won't heat soak

I'm lowered about 1 inch all around, and the mouth only sticks out about 2 inches below the front bumper/fascia, sits higher than the air dam...pretty good ground clearance, just have to be extra careful around curbs

Definitely! It's really no biggy at all though, and cheap overall

Good point lol. Next season I plan on buying an extra filter just for track use. Gotta squeeze every little bit you can!

At NED? I run 12.4's in my bolt on LT1. Sounds like it would be some fun racing.
