Default cam only vert times

3484 lbs weight + 200 for driver

12.317 1/4 mi.
7.8 1/8 mi.
1.77 60'

mods below, i am sort of dissapointed. i was hoping for 12.00. my second run my brakes wouldnt hold me and i accidently jumped the tree and the light went red and didnt know what the hell to do. i end up running 13.7 with a 3.70 60' then the test and tune session was done for the night and didnt get a chance to run again. The first run i felt like i could have gotten more out of it, I footbraked it to about 3000 rpms and eased it out of the hole.

performance was SFCs, SSRA, LID, Cut EGR tube, Cat-back, Open cutout

i was trapping 109 and my et was 13.67 and 60 ft was 2.23


with nittos and good weather i think i can run 12.9x with that trap speed
