Default 12.77@111

Finally made a 1/4 mile pass last night at firebird dragstrip in AZ and went 12.773@111 w/ a 2.01 60' and an 8.37 1/8th.

the car has been 7.80s in the 1/8th at home at sea level with the 3.42s, this so far was my best pass with the 4.11s.... but idk how to launch it yet, and street tires dont really like to hook

Good run jordan. Our cars would be a good run. I trapped 110 with my ls1 intake manifold and a nitrous tune. I have the ls6 intake waiting for install. I bet we would be neck and neck

Congrats! Now get some dr's and go for 12.50's

THat would be pretty impressive. The track i went to had horrible track prep so my times sucked. But i really just care about the mph anyway. WHat the hell were you doing in az?

With a decently prepped sea level track, no reason why you can't go quicker than 12.3s on street tires. You certainly have the power to do so. Good luck.

Nice run!

FWIW I think its going to be tough to run the numbers your hoping for at Fontucky. It just seems to be a slow track for whatever reason. Ill be out there when they re-open in march, you should run at that time also, cause the cooler air will be good for your goal
