12.71 in a nearly stock, barely bolt-on car
 

yep. just when I thought it wouldn't get better, I pulled a 12.71 out of my... somewhere.

I still have cbrrmike's SLP lid, same flowmaster muffler, and I decided to put some 100 octane gas in it, because I was about to run out of gas :lol:

60' - 1.841
330 - 5.367
1/8 - 8.210
1/8 mph - 88.62
1000' - 10.644
1/4 - 12.712
1/4 mph - 109.76


I had one more slip that was a 1.83x 60 and 5.32x 330, which would have put me at a 12.67 or so, but I missed 3rd. oops.

Nice times

Impressive.

its yours now, happy birthday

Congrats!

Impressive Melissa way to go!

nicee

Congrats. I was there to witness it!

congrats!

holy crap! great times!

So, is there like some kind of "lid only" record I should be going for here?

not with your muffler

Wow, gj >.<

congrats!

100 octane make any diffrence. They are sweet times on a stock car

that's an incredible time for the mods. Nice driving.

what kind of tires are you running to get those type of 60 fts?

yey melissa

They're just street tires, BFG KDWS but they hook real nice. I run about 18 psi in them.

thats a real nice 60 ft for some street tires. i know people that have trouble nailing those times in m6's with drags on em.

It's all about how you release the clutch. If you just let off it at 4k of course it's gonna either spin or break something. Gotta drag the clutch so you can give the suspension a chance to work and load the drive train some so you don't snap the rear or driveshaft.

Also has a lot to do with what other cars are running that day. If it's just street tires, no ones gonna hook. If there are a good amount of slick cars there and the starting line is prepped well, you won't be able to spin if you wanted to. That's how the last 3 sat and Sundays have been at island. I was leaving at 4-4500 and could barely keep from bogging down it hooked so nicely.

driver mod ftw!

I ran a 12.856 @ 112 mph with my 02 Z28 with just an SLP Lid.

That's a nasty 60' time with street tires!

Wasn't that after your dump? I know you were on like bald tires.

Yeah it was, actually. My mistake. I ran that time with a SLP Lid and Pacesetter LT's.
