Default Almost in the 10's
Had to share this with my LT1 bruthas & Sistas....

Got PEPE galloping down to 11.1 @124.7, 1.56 60' (pass in the photo), ran 11.1 twice (the only 2 full passes I made) need a cage & jacket, sucks having to let off and brake after the 1/8th mile, but didn't want to get kicked off.

Good job!
Brett, when you get that 60' down, you will most certainly be in the tens.
Stick cars just take some practice. Some guys never get "there", but it looks like your well on your way. Don't get discouraged. Took me almost a full season before I could get my first race car to run as fast as the old guy that was trying to teach me how to race. 124 mph is good for 10.70s for sure.

We race year round in the south, right when y'all are covered in snow is our prime racing time, prety much from mid November till Febuary, after that it gets hot.
