Can someone evaluate this run w/ a decent 60'?
Just wonderin what ET I would have possibly pulled off on this 60'? I am dying to hit 12's got a car that's a beast but desperately seeking 12's! <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />
A few of my guy buds, told me that if I pulled a 2.0 or a 1.9 short I would have been possibly a 12.7 or 12.8 pass.
Temp about 46-48 degrees w/ maybe 60-60% humidity.
Track conditions were gone so my 60' times suffered from the consistent 2.0 and 2.1's earlier in the night.
Reaction time .547
60' 2.362
330' 5.842
1/8 8.690
MPH 87.08
1000' 11.112
1/4 13.163
MPH 110.49
Granted the launch severly hurt me bad...worst in a long time, but best ever 1/8th and 1/4 MPH...this car is lowered and has MAC headers w/ OR Y and a lid.
I am just wondering what some of you guru's think I could have ET'd and trapped w/ a better launch and you can see that this car likes to boogie

I am out there all the time.....still on warm Nitto's a buddy of mine couldn't hook after cutting 1.8's.
Track was lost...got too cold and no additional prep was done.
Just wonderin is all. I have a feeling how hard this thing pulls to make up the lost time in the 60' that traps should be about 112. Can't wait til after the 4.10's go in.....I am gonna be a hard girlie to beat <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
Thanks for your input <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Get that 60' to 2.1 or 2.0 and you will have it. I have very similar mods, today pulled several 12.9's. 45 degrees and sunny!
12.97@108 2.07 60' 2.73 rear. Nitto's. QTEC.
You have an awesome trap speed, 110mph!!! You can get you some 12.8's or 12.7's with that speed.

Claire Im sure that car has 12.7s in it. Its amazing what a good 60' will do for you! Your doing a great job at the wheel, AND knocking that tree down!!!The 4.10s will help quite a bit!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Just knocking your 60ft down to 2.000 would get you in the 12.80x range. But with the "rule" of 60ft's, theoretically, you should be able to pull some 12.60-12.70s with a 2.000 60ft.
Good luck...

Might I suggest? Remove front sway bar, spin the hell out of those nittos in the water box to get them warm. Then pull forward to the dry spot and give them another 1 second spin to shed the water.
