Arrow Will I hit 12's.

Everyone,

My goal is to run 12's with my car. Haven't got to the track.. my my mods are schedualed for install as well as tune on the 23rd. Below is a list of my mods. You think I'll hit it? I know a goat is a fatbitch.. but I think my mods will get her there.

I would guess a 12.3 would be about the best your going to see. Mainly because of the weight.

12.3@ 112
