Default New PR at KCIR last night!

Well last year my first time out i ran 12.1s consitent.over winter i bumped my gears from 342 to 373 and shift points up 6450 and little weight off the car. Well i finally got into the 11s. First passed i went through the trap at 11.92@113. I had a little upper end puttering, but didnt really think about it since this was the first time the car had stretched its legs in over 5 months. So i lined up again, did a little longer burnout. (ended up with a worse 60ft,oh well) however i went through at 11.78@116mph! Overall i was very happy! Not to bad for an almost full weight car,and ~400# pound driver. Thanks for reading!

Congrats! My 355 LT1 back in the day propelled my car to a best of 11.90 NA.

It had only a CC503 cam and some hand ported stock heads. Your combo is definitely stouter.
