Well not quite stock but yes damn close to it.
But that's true, it will be quite hard for you to beat that .60 Greg, that was a STRONG pass for a mere lid, cut out and tuning car.
I might be there Sunday if the stars are in alignment LOL.

Hee hee thanx guys, I'm not expecting to go faster than that 12.60 I know that was the car's best run under perfect conditions that night but I still want to go down once or twice more before the years over. Besides I always enjoy hanging with you guys and watching everybody run too. Who knows maybe some real mods will be in the works for next spring .

You'll probably see me on a Saturday. Looking to get at least a 110 MPH trap speed with my new induction mods and a really negative DA.

It was a good day down there today, weather was good, not too crowded at all and the track hooked better than I thought it would. They did spray it a couple times and once it got some heat in it it was good. No new bests but the car did run good: 12.81 12.80 12.79 12.78 12.77 12.73 12.70 and a 12.69 all at a little over 109, talk about consistent huh. Some nice 60 fts. too, 1.9s most of the day with a best of 1.91. Met some new guys with some fast cars today it was a fun time.

Hey, thanks again for the burnout tip. It really helped in getting my 60' and E.T. down. My best today was the 13.153@106.37 with the 2.087 60' time. I have to work on my burnouts and my launches, eventually get Nitto DR's, and get rid of my false knock retard so that I can get as quick and fast as you. Hey, this is what I was talking about earlier...about the SSRA2.

'02 A4 Z28 w/PTB dynoes@298...after SLP lid, dynoes@303...after SSRA2, dynoes@318!

Hey, you know what? The weather condition today was so close to the weather condition during last year's after-Thanksgiving Saturday. With the new induction mods in my Z28, I should have been trapping at least 109 MPH. I swear that false knock killed me. I'm getting the POS Spohn driveshaft loop removed ASAP. Spohn changed their product description for it so that it's meant to clear only aftermarket exhausts. Before, they said it'll clear both factory and aftermarket exhausts.

I had the gto over at atco on sunday. I saw a couple of nice f-body cars there. It was my first time out with the gto so I didnt really get any times worth mentioning.
Too bad the gamblers racers kept breaking down or i could have gotten a few more runs.
