Congrats Jim. I hope to be close to your times when I get my headers on. Well, when I can get a tune.
I think you are probably the first bolt on car on stock tires in the 11s as of recent. Nice trap too.

More proof that other headers might make higher HP numbers but Kooks rule at the track!
Nice run. Was this at Cecil County?

Honestly, I think the auto guys are getting beat up by TM, the stick guys just need to abuse the clutch some more.
These tires aren't bad at all. My traction wasn't limited at all last week, too bad the computer kept shutting me down.

Good air at Capital today approx. -1200+/- DA
I agree that you have to be willing to beat-up the clutch to get a good launch with no hop on a well preped track!

yes this was capitol. We had a private track rental today and i got a few runs in . I also ran a few 12.0, 12.1's and 12.2's all at about 115-118mph.
That took ALOT of carassing to get it to run 1.75 60fts, i started the day with 2.0's and realized the only way to get 60fts down is by slipping the clutch and having NO wheel spin, a little to early and it was spin city.
i worked it down slowly from 2.0 to 1.9 to 1.8 to 1.7
Im very happy. Now, i need a tune and ill be looking for a 120mph trap.

i have hp tuners to turn off cags and stuff, but i don't know how to mess with the tables so i havent touched them yet.
According to HP tuners though, the MN6 has no TM at all, the A6 probably does but the software does not let you look at it due to the fact its not released yet.
O by the way, this is with both traction and active handling off.
Competetive mode slowed me down.
