Ran a new best tonight. Was pretty satisfied. I got the car tuned recently, so I was hoping my mph would increase, but it didnt, exact same as my old run. But I did as follows....

60' 1.86
330' 5.28
1/8 8.058
mph 88.78
1/4 12.42
mph 114.19

I finally got the 60' I wanted. That is with UNTOUCHED suspension, and stock 10 bolt w/ 3.42's and a street tire (michelin pilot sport A/S's)

P.S. Also, what do I do to get that "12 second club" thing in my title. 11's are coming when my car isnt so... stock. lol

Congrats!
Good job with those pilot sports. Great street tire, hard to hook up on at the strip though.

Thanks guys. Yeah I thought I was stuck with 2.1 60's for the rest of my life, couldnt seem to get out of them. But then I hit 2, 2.0's and that was pretty good, then I just launched it higher (4500) and rode it out and it just hooked and was gone. Did about a 5-7 second burnout. My plans are just to get some suspension, and tires, a small bit of weight reduction, and then try out a 75-100 shot.
