Best ET was 10.68 @ 129.80 at 10 psi.

Yes, Brent was running at 122 mph and Kenny was running 127-128 mph. Kenny's best 60' was 1.88, he couldn't find any traction with the tires he had and a 3,950 race weight.

What kind of dyno numbers on your GTO. Very impressive times. Faster than any other LS1s' with an STS kit. Also what size turbo are you running?
