Default LT1 12 sec all motor.

Was trying hard all damn night to get there, Messed with the computer a lil bit but on my last run of the night finally got the right combination for one run anyways.

12.93 @ 103 with a 1.868

Looking to go with a bigger converter and some taller gears to get te right combo for my big *** cam. We'll see what happens!

Ok, forgotten what all you've done to the car...need to do a search to find out. Just a few more tweaks and you will be in low 12's (bastid! JK )
And is it me or are those fairly new picts in your sig line?

I am looking to hit low 12's MAYBE high 11's next TNT on the bottle. Gunna throw some 101 in the car just to make sure it is ok. Also going to run a couple trials on the street with a fuel pressure gauge to make sure it doesn't dip too low. Always on the safe side

The 101 should hold for you a little better especially if you are going to track it more often. For some reason I don't think you would need any juice but its good for grins and giggles (pun intended).
Fuel pressure gauge. Yeeeup. A seeming insignificant little item that could have saved me a ton of trouble now, don't care if its mounted on the part that makes it go straight or into a curve just that its visible.

Would love to see you get into 11's without a ton tweaks

I talked with you before your semi-final s match. Guess I was bad luck though.

Now I remember you, you're the *somewhat* ;( young ( 20 something ? ) guy. I still don't have everybody's screen names and faces/real names down. I'll remember you next time though BTW no you didn't jinx me, I can jinx myself just fine thank you lol ! I just really sucked that last run ! I 60 footed .170 versus his .139 ( I had been doing .090 to .040's ) and I also broke out by .05 and he ran within .02 of his dial in so he had me beat 2 differant ways That's racin'

uhhhhhh.......at least you didn't say "young pretty guy".....but it was close enough

Faces stick with me for decades. Names? About 10 seconds if that. I'll just side up to you and say "is that? you know...them?"

eh, breaking stride once in awhile happens. They still aren't totally sucky numbers.

edited post to say 'somewhat" in place of "pretty" ;( lol ! I can't help it that I'm "pretty" blond sometimes haha !

Or just wait for somebody else to call them by name, and then walk confidently up to them and say "So Joe hows the wife and kids doing"

eh, breaking stride once in awhile happens. They still aren't totally sucky numbers.
Just ONE MORE friggin' win and I would've had one of those trophys I guess that's the carrot that'll keep me coming back lol !
