Default 1/4 mile results

I posted a topic "How fast will my car go" back in april of this year
and most guy's predicted a mid 12. Pretty close the car probably still
has it in it, the results were.

12.9@105
1.8 (60ft)

Very nice; with a little tuning you will likely see those mid-12s.

He'll never see that unless he gets headers too though.

I'd say your MPH is nearly in line with what you should be seeing and would guess around 350-360 flywheel right now. You should be able to pull the ET down a couple I think with practice and traction.
