Best run was a 13.6 @ 113. First time at the track it was a blast. Still need to find traction and oh yea......learn how to drive :rolleyes:

All I am going to say is that with a better 60 ft time that mph(113) is good for an 11.9 all day. However traction and that 1.6 60 ft time are the key to that magical run.

Wow!!!! :stare That's pretty bad ass! :headbang
Nice numbers!! This post definitely took me by surprise!
How does it feel compared to before? Now that you got the HP, next thing is maybe traction and a rear end? :( Bummer but GM didn't bless those cars with a decent rear end. Hope to see you out this year!

PS: Aren't you the same guy I met at the gas station for the K&N breather filter? :thumbsup

Huh........ :confusedFor us Keith
My best was a 1.59 but i the fvcking car had plugwire issues that night
something is still wrong ,it should do at least a high 12 with a 2.3 60
I'm guessing its a stick car-car should do a 12.2 or so on a 1.7--Windsor f-bodys are heavy -but the car should do better at the track
