Good luck With your trap speeds and some lower shifting I believe you have 12.2's or 12.3's in you.

Miguel, I know you're excited, but you don't need to make threads BEFORE you go to the track. Just go, do it, then post the timeslip and details.

I don't know how you'll go from 12.5 to 12.2 with a change in tire pressure, but if you do, then good job. At least your car is fast now, and you're hitting easy 12s with no problem.

I'm going to chime in here as well, and say I know you're excited as well BUT you really need to shift A LOT lower in the RPM range, I'm talking 7300 AT MOST preferably less. And yes, actually lower your tire pressures this time concidering you were spinning so bad last time.

GL and have fun.

Well not only that but I think we finally talked him into trying to shift lower. He was shifting at 7600-7800 on the stock cams. With his traps he can run low 12's with some clean runs.

I appreciate what you said but please dont post negative things like you always do to me, if youre gona do that then dont say anything. I wrote this thread bc i am excited and this is my new goal, and ive been getting some great tips from other members here that are supportive of me hitting my goals! I went from running 14's to 12.5 constantly so thats a big improvement and ive continued to get better and better... ANd i dont see you talking down to others that make the same thread so like i said if you dont have anything positive to say , i rather you say nothing at all...
