Yeah Joe went like 12.2-12.4 at 118 so I definitely expect to see better numbers once I can get some hook.

practice makes perfect!

slowhawk, those half shafts in the vetts, built or not, will take 500 rwhp max if your dead hooking. if the tire spins then your ok.
my buddies lpe tt vett had the lpe half shaft, and i got the suspention to slip just right so the car spun but still 60'ed in the mid 1.4 and stayed nice and straight. then the *** sold the car. lol

steph, just check your time slips. if you ran b-man that pass, it was early in the morning because the rest of the day he was left lain. he went 100 mph that pass. low 7's.
