I got a 12.8 @ 107mph with a 1.8 60 foot on 91 pump gas @ 22psi. That was my first time at the drag strip.

Something just doesn't seem right with the car. Even when I pull a 1.9 60ft I still manage a 12.7 and that's just with the minimal mods in my sig.

I would think with that kind of power and perfect driving, you could see a high 11sec timeslip.

I was at the grove on Sat also, it was crazy packed and people kept on breaking. With more seat time your numbers will drop.

Also work on the r/t. The second run was a little late. Try to go on the last yellow.

R/T is not important here.

Something has to be wrong. You have similiar mods than I do, (acutally more mods) and acutally put out more horsepower and you are only trapping at 108-9? Something has to be off....I don't think it's the utec. I use the utec also and think it's great for tuning. Maybe just need more practice.

Yea, practice is key. On my second run I was on pace for at least a 12.5 at 112mph until I missed 4th. So I don't think anything is really wrong, just need more practice. Getting 2 runs at the track in over 4 hours doesn't help my cause.

And yes, with a better driver, I am sure the car can do 12.0's. It flies....
