Default Finally a 12 sec. pass! TBSS

After finishing off last year with a best of 13.04 so dam close to the 12's its been burning me all winter. Finally made it out to Muncie they have not been open but once this season due to weather. DA was about 1400+ and a strong headwind. My best pass was 12.82 at 104.11 with a 1.733 60 foot. Also ran a couple 12.84's, 12.89, and a 12.94-first pass off the highway. Mods are: 2006 TBSS awd, custom grind Vector Motorsports cam, Kooks headers, RPM trans & Vigilante 3400 converter. Not the fastest thing out there but its 5000lbs and I gotta drive it all year.

Yeah you know how it is if you could just get to that next benchmark you'd be happy! And then there is the next one! It never ends

Awesome. I'd take a 12-second, AWD daily driver.

And 12.8 is impressive for the trap. Go AWD!

Thanks guys! Look at the flag above the starting line, this was not the best pass but the best video due to the wind.

Same mods, a little better weather and it ran 12.73 @ 106. Its got a little left in it just need to get some really good DA! I got a vacation coming up so another trip to the track and hopefully by the end of the month some better times too.

Leaving on the last yellow!

Bump this since I ran a new best the other night and its not gonna get any better! For now at least. Muncie Dragway test & tune night DA was great about sea level. The 12.73 I ran a few weeks ago corrected to a 12.59 and guess what... It ran 12.59 @ 107. This thing the past three years what ever it runs in the spring/summer I check the corrected times and I will always run them in the fall. Its within a few hundredths like clockwork!
