Slipping the clutch can burn your clutch in 1 shot.

How was the autox?? What class did you run -- I assume SM with your mods.

Your MPH are the same as one of my SLOWER 12.7 runs. My 12.6 run was at 109.xx.

I am just bustin' yer ***** anyway. I am limited in what I can do to run in ESP for autox. I am happy with my 12.6, especially because it was without a boost controller.

Stock tires at that temp are not going to bite especially if they are wetting the burnout area. If you burn them a couple of times they might bite. I ran mine in thiry degree temps and did not spin the water off. My back tires bit and my front spun. It got a little exciting to say the least. I am at Buschur stage two and Dynoflashed, but a 12.90 is still the best. It is part me and part the car. I have the twin disc Excedy so clutch is not the issue.

Yeah -- I have heard that for months now.

Maybe I'll put my $50 Manual Boost Controller on and pull a low 12 just to **** you off!
