Thumbs up

Nice.
We're almost neck and neck right now (except you've got that nice LS3 induced trap speed ), I ran a 12.07 and hit 117.91mph on Tuesday after adding a Vararam and some tuning (along with the 160 degree t-stat) to my LS2 auto.
I haven't posted it over on the CF yet though.

Well, a 1.8 (1.86 and spinning a little as well) actually LOL...so yes we both know what your passes could've potentially been with a better sixty foot. A high 1.9 or even a low 2.00 will get you into the 11s in that same air most likely.

Yeah but I might be running again as well, I might get a 12.05!
I have no doubts that your car will be in the 11.9s some time during your next two track visits, does your track stay open through the whole winter?

Nah longer than that, our other 'local' track closes after this weekend (the even closer track to me had already closed for the season in mid November) and neither track is likely to reopen again until March/April.

Tuesday wasn't the best air though, Saturday will definitely be better, snow/rain should hold off until the night 11.90s are for sure as long as you can find traction.
