Well I finally did it yesterday at Milan Dragway in Mi.
I was there for test and tune and had 7 runs in total. Started the day with a 13.21 taking it easy down the track because it was the first trip down the 1/4 mile this year and the first time with the new 12-bolt. After that I went a little harder and got a 13.15. Then I figured it was time to see what I could do. <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" /> 13.008,13.003 and Then...
60 ft - 1.997
330ft - 5.528
1/8et - 8.407
1/8mph- 87.41
1/4 et- 12.958
1/4mph- 108.69
I had two more runs after that which were also in the 12's
12.918@108.71(1.973 60ft)I was spinning hard off the line but still managed my best 60' which I thought was wierd.
12.933@109.53(1.987 60ft)
After my last run though my clutch failed again so I have to have that checked out now but I think the good out weighed the bad <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
sorry for the long post

Congrats! I broke 12's the same day you did. You were actually 2 cars ahead of me in the staging lanes at one point. I recognized your license plate. Nice 60' too. I couldn't cut anything less than a 2.1. It was so damned cold and track prep wasn't very good. ET streets will help next time.

Shoot me a pm if you're going again. We can round up all the local f-bodies and make a day out of it.

I'll definetly pm you unit, although I don't think I will be out there for atleast a month since my clutch went. I'm trying to get it fixed asap but I will have to break it in before I can head back to the track. For my 60 I was using BFG drag radials, I have a set of ET Streets also that I will use next time, I didn't see the point this time because it was so cold and I didn't think I would hook with anything anyway.
How much does everyone thing you are able to gain from drag radials to ET Streets?

congrats on the 12s. Feels great when you get that first 12 second slip! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I hope that was the stock clutch that let go on you. Either way, it sucks. Sorry to hear that. I have a pair of Nitto's on the way. I was considering ET Streets, but I want something more street friendly. I'd be careful with ET Streets since you have an M6...that is if you're still running the stock 10 bolt. A few high rpm clutch dumps and good hooks and it's 12 bolt time.

Have track officials said anything to you since you have a convertible?

Congrats on hitting the 12's...

I also experienced my best 60' times on Street Tires spinning.. Seemed to spin across the line faster than I could feather it across...

I have a 12-bolt now, my 10-bolt blew up on me last fall. No one has said anything to me yet at the track which is fine with me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I really don't feel like ruining the look of my car with a cage.

I'm considering getting a 'vert. The only reason I wouldn't is the whole cage issue. Screw that. I'll get one if they'll let me run.
