Default New 12 second club member here!

Well I did it. After several passes over the last 2 years of 13.1 - 13.6 I finally broke the 12 second barrier. My car is in the sig and the following is the first ever slip for me with a 12 second ET on it.

60'-------1.967
330------5.490
1/8------8.342
mph-----86.23
1000----10.791
1/4-----12.852
MPH----109.48

As you can see, my car was having traction issues. Even heated Nittos at 17 psi could not hook very well for me. I was spining all the way through first and even went slightly sideways for a sec on that run. With a dead hook on slicks, I'm sure a 12.5 or so awaits me this April

Prior to my last stretch of mods I had just Lid, dynomouth and SSRA. Those mods in a 99 Formula with 3.23 gears was good enough for low 13's at 105. Had I added Nittos then I'm sure a 12.9 was possible in good air. So any newbies reading this should not think it takes everything I have in my sig to break into 12's.

Can I get a new title now please? Pretty please?

Next up, the hunt for 11.99
