Default 12.36@116

Took the SS to the track for the 1st time, 1st few runs I was so scared to break my rear I ran some mid 12's@115 but towards the end of the night I got used to slipping the clutch and stoping wheelhop the best I could and managed a 12.36@116.42 with a 2.024 60ft. On my very last run I cut a 1.92 and missed 2nd gear, what kinda **** is that. Anyhow, I think with some better air (high 80's, 95% humidity) I could break into the 11 second club. But man I see how those 10 bolts break, wheel hop, on my first few burnouts/launches I really had it hoping/bangin around, but after a while I could keep it smooth. Oh well, not bad for my 1st time out in the SS.

What was your 1/8th mile trap and ET? We are near the same power range but I haven't ran the 1/4th yet. I went a 7.91 @ 92.5 w/1.83 60 ft best so far. Going to the run the 1/4th soon as I get a day off.
