Exclamation still no 12s yet but im content

last night went to cecil county dragway with my lil brother and his one friend in our fbodies. track prep was decent. the DA was about +1013ft unfortunately. running nittos 555z summer tires. they were aired down to 23psi. didn't do a smoke burnout. I wanted to see what it trapped after installing headers.

my lil bro on his first pass broke his factory torque arm!
anyone have a BMR or UMI for sale so I can let him know?
his mods are LBO MS4 geared/stalled and built trans. he has a 02 t/a

other buddy has a m6 t/a cam and fbo. he never gotten a clean pass as he cant drive a m6 to save his life and lets off before completing the run

got 3 runs in and the pic attached was the 2nd run.
all 3 runs I managed to run consistent crappy sixty lol in the 2.15-2.20
first run was 13.3@106/107
second run 13.1@109/110
third run 13.2@108/109

I cant recall the DA back when I ran just tune and FTRA when I trapped 105/106. anyways next mod will be a 3600 stall and I got some rear suspension mods (LCA and panhard bar) to install during the winter. also gotta work on my tune. currently commanding 5900rpms but shifts at 6350 (cant recall if it was 1-2 or 2-3 shift wasn't logging).

Being that you're on street tires with your mods, your times make sense

Get some drag radials and you'll be in the 12's. 10 bolt will be fine with an auto and 2.73's

Wow what is it like driving your car with that size of a cam, 2.73s and a stock stall?? That car needs some gears and at least a 3600 stall with some sticky tires. It will be a whole new beast

AMAZING
converter is next on the list. going with a 3600 stall. gears would be in the future along with a 12, 9, or 8.8 bolt unless I bite the bullet and cam afterwards then the 10 bolt pops
