60' - 1.786
330- 5.190
1/8 - 8.060
MPH- 83.55
1000-10.529
1/4 - 12.583
MPH - 109.33

I got my 60' down to where it should be. Maybe next time I'll try some race fuel and turn up the boost a lil. Also removing the spare might help. Any other tricks I'm missing?

boo-yea! shave .3 from the 60 and you got aprox .3 off the 1/4. Good job. I wish I could do that well

I don't have the cams and I've run a 12.53 (12.42 is my fastest with a 112 or so trap speed) I think a little tuning and some practice launching and shifting will get you a tenth or two if not more.... try shifting at 6800 rpm, seems to be the sweet spot, sometimes I do the 1-2 shift at 7400rpm... If you rev higher, you might be able to sneak through the traps with one less gear change.. if you don't bounch off the limiter you could gain a 10th out of it..

I'll definetely experiment with the shift points. I was shifting around 6900-7000 on all 4 gears. Good stuff keep em' coming.

3rd to 4th i shifted at 7200 to 7300 rpm and i manged to get a 111mph to a 113mph pass i shifted at 6800 rpm when i got the 111mph.. knowing your car's shift point helps a lot

im gonna see if my friend has a vid of ur car running when he gets back.. for now i need to find a host for my run
