Thanks!!!!
My 3rd run my car sat for a good 2 hours (LOTS of track clean ups!!)and was COLD....Apparently the left lane had major traction issues after the mass amounts of clean up- I had my rpms up pretty good and got on it when the tree went down but I started to go sideways..... I think that would have been my 12.5-12.6 pass for the night. I ended up running a 13.2 that run. The ther 3 runs for the night were 12.90 and 2 12.72

The MPH was def there for me last night!!

Wow and it was just last year that you were practically doin' cartwheels about finally hitting 14.9s (and 14.8 ) in your V6, ya come a long way baby!

Me too...I went 11.8s even AND with a bunch of hard hittin' 1.6/couple of 1.5 sixty foots but umm, I'm an automatic LOL.
But yes, even the 10 bolt in the manuals can take at least a little more abuse than a 1.9 sixty foot gives.
