Default 12.70@114mph... Why such a bad et with such a good mph???
It's a M6 and on all season radials/original rearend and clutch...

Full bolt-ons and a 224/.583 cam only. Stock 241 casting heads. LS6 intake.

The 60' was 2.16.

What gives!?! I have a ton more mph than a lot of 12 sec. guys...

I think all I need is TRACTION!!!

You are correct drop the 60 ft down some and you will reduce your ET.

bring that 60 foot down to a 1.8 and your knocking on the door to 11's.
