Ran a 12.75 @ 106.5, nothing different done to the car at all from my last runs.

Had a rough 60 foot time of 1.900, track was FREEZING cold, air was great, but too cold to get some real bite out of the tires tonight. Would have been nice to get the same 1.76 60 foot time I did mid summer. In time........

***************EDIT: 10/24: Bests of 12.72 & 107.38

Keep at it

That 11 sec timeslip will take a bit more work.

Plan on adding more power yet?

Congrats Don. If there was more time between runs the motor would have cooled more and your mph may have hit 107.

I still can't believe that we got 7 time trials last night. I am still pissed that I spun so much and had such a bad reaction in the 1st round after running so consistent in the time trials, but getting in 8 all out runs was great. I was happy to finally hit that 120mph mark with only 7psi of boost too.

Ya, it's now a reality that I'll need more help power wise. I plan on doing some long tubes, cat removal and intake delete plates, then see where I'm at

Griggs had their full GR40 05+ their. Motor is stock with a Paxton on it and ofcourse FULL road racing suspension. Ran 122mph through the traps. Needless to say, if I can't get my high 11 N/A, I'll add a blower and bypass the 11's and go straight to the 10's

I don't have money to burn, but I did just burn 3k on ANOTHER set of wheels/tires, this set for the street

I go in spurts. Next spurt will likely be a Griggs setup of control arms and coil overs.

It was damn cold last night. you are getting it down there.

The good news is that I got my quickest ever in the 93. I ran an 11.42 @ 119.4mph with a 1.62 60ft. Now my new motor with 7psi of boost is quicker than my old motor with 10psi of boost. I also made it to the final.

The bad news is that I red lit in the final and my clutch was slipping REAL BAD in the semi final. I got lucky because the other guy broke out. I knew I needed a good light to win in the final with a slipping clutch, but I went a little early. I eased it off the line, but when I hit 2nd is started slipping again so I didn't run it out.
