you broke the driveshaft on street tires??? sounds like it was about to break anyways or something... but as far as your question i think you are really close, most of the 12.9ish people i have seen have been in the 8.3-4ish region

yeah, i broke the driveshaft on street tires...heres the link to my post about it . i know im pretty close, but the closest track (san angelo) is an hour away and its a shitty track, then ennis (south of dallas) is 2.5 hrs away. i could hit HRP up (houston), but when im down there im always visiting family so its hard to get away...i saw on the database on here that im close, but nothing that says somebody ran my 1/8th time at 12.XX @ 10X.XX . 1/8 to 1/4 mile calcs give me 13.3 @ 107 based on et's, but 12.48 based on mph. i know i cant exactly split the middle of those two, but i figure i gotta be close. i was just wondering if i could narrow it down some in here...thanks for the help so far...
