Good ET , I`ll bet it feels like a different car with no TM. Who did the tunning on the car for you?

Nice. None of the Goats I've seen at the track around here run that good.

Nice times, but your trap speed should definitely be higher, as I trapped 109mph at a track that was at 1300 ft. elevation, and i'm kicking out the same amount of power as you.

yeah... a buddy of mine ran 13.0 with a trap of 109... another one with 13.0 with a 107.

I dunno what it is... maybe cause i'm fat. lol
Yeah... this one was only 1200 ft.. DA of 3100. dunno if that matters???

If I went by DA i'd go to LACR and be in the 12 sec. club in no time, as it usually is around 4-5K feet DA. I think the fact that your car is an auto is probably hurting it. With an aftermarket torque converter you'll probably see sick numbers.

A GTO is 400lbs heavier then a TA, that would be the 4mph difference. Also a 3000+ DA compared to a 1300 DA would cost several mph.

I said 1300 ft. above sea level, not density altitude, which is much higher for Speedway.
