Default 12.1 @ 109

My best of the night was a 12.16 @ 109.44 on a 1.672 60'. Weather wasn't the best, and I was still traction limited, but it was a new best. Stock motor, TCS 4200 stall, ASP pulleys, Hooker headers, crude tuning with LS1 Edit (running pretty rich), and some weight reduction. Hoping to hit 11s with a few new mods I have coming and some better weather.

Nice run. I think you could make that mph come up a little bit with the weight reduction. Anyway keep practicing, so you can hit the big 11's

Keep practicing? You're kidding right? I think quickWS6 has it down pat. Running a 12.1 @ 109mph shows mastery at the line in my book. Most guys run a 13.0 @ 109mph. You should be very proud of your car and of your prowess. A 12.1 for a minimal bolt-on car is fantastic!

Nice runs. The DA last night was 1900-2100.
Easy 11s when it cools down some.

Thanks man, but I wouldn't say I've mastered any part of it. That was my first time launching decent with the stall, and only the second time I've been to the track since I got it.

I was launcing off idle. What do you launch at to cut a 1.581 60'? Thats awesome. I'm gonna try to make it down there, I'm pretty sure I won't be running the car though.

Try launching at 2500-2800 rpms. I cut 4 1.58s (11.61@115.6 mph)last night in this crappy weather.
