Ok, I have kept looking in my room for the timeslip from the dragstrip that day. I remember the mph being high and I still believe it was 114. We were running the car at Coastal Plains Dragway in Jacksonville, NC. I will continue to search my stuff for the timeslip but I just finished having all my stuff moved to Korea so bear with me. I realize that 114 is high but I wasn't in the car I let my buddy Geoff run the car and he pulled it off. I didn't gloat about it or anything I was just happy it broke into the 12's that day. I really am not that concerned with the MPH. The only thing that was removed out of the car that day was the spare tire and the Air filter. I am not trying to trash talk on this forum I just posted up what it made the last days before I left. I will get back to you guys when I find it and hopefully clear up the issue...


thanks...

That is unbelievable. No seriously, I don't believe it.

I have a buddy with full bolt ons, 4000 stall and a 228/232 111 lsa cam that only traps around 113. There is NO WAY your car traps 114. 104 will likely be a lot closer to the truth.

Although rare... You might be right... That one pass was the only one that broke 106mph so maybe I will double check it if I manage to find it. I think I left it in my car back home. I will just come to the conclusion that she didn't make 114mph as you guys are the more experienced ls1 crowd so we will see what she does when I get back home. Sorry for the confusion but apparently you guys are right. As I said I am not concerned with the MPH I was just happy she broke into the 12's that day.


thanks guys

Lot of high MPH's around here lately..What's in the air? maybe this global warming **** is making our "almost stock" cars run more mph...

damn...you need to get your 60' down, youve got mid to low 12s relying on it.
