New personal best

I couldn't get a good launch to save my life, but oh well, a best is a best, I honestly think there's an 11 second pass in this car.

R/T.................... .212
60...................... 1.927
330.................... 5.398
1/8..................... 8.211
MPH.................. 86.51
1000.................. 10.613
1/4...................... 12.603
MPH................... 113.87 <----woah momma

Holy sh$%$%, where did that mph come from? You were doing 12.7 at 107 Friday night in the cool temps. Did you change anything on Saturday, or is Cecil just fast as hell?

Yes, but not with a 1.92 60'. That ruins everything and costs him anywhere from .3-.5s depending on the effect it had on the 1-2 transition, but the car is definitely capable of low 12s with that sort of power being made.

Don't get discouraged, most of the dragster guys with their lows 12's have had hundreds of launches in theirs dsms or evo.

Practice makes perfect.

ive run an 11.98 with a 113.5 trap. So once you get your launch down the skys the limit. Good job. Love the trap.
