Default Well, new best ET tonight.

Went to the track tonight with some other forum members and I ran my best ET - 13.07@108.7. I actually broke into the 1.9s to. My best et was with a 1.99 60', but I actually had a 1.96 tonight.

Still feel like there is a 12 in this thing. Good air and a good track this fall and I'll get it! :thumbs:

You are absolutely right, but I have this weird goal of doing it on the true street tires. I am convinced that I could go 12.80s on drag radials.

By the way, there was a Z06 there and his best was a 13.31.

He more or less admitted he was not doing a very good job driving it. I mentioned that I had red of them running mid-12s stock and creaping into the 11s on drag radials and he just shook his head. A niec guy, just would need a few more trips to get more familiar with his car like that. But it goes to show you that more HP doesn't always make a faster car.
