see thats what I don't get with all these people on this forum, your mph are nearly the same no matter what your et is...good driving is why he ran a 12.0 not the 118...the more spinning the higher the trap speed...hell when I roll out I trapp high 115s but when I run 12.5s its @113-114...

I'm also assuming that he made the run on run flats, which is why he's got a 2.0 and 1.9 60... which also makes the MPH impressive, since drag radials (17 m/t's anyway) are an inch shorter than our stock tires and thus provide some gearing help to the car.
Hope that helps explain my comments.

sorry these runs were made on c5 17inch z06 wheels with mickey T's car was redynoed on different dyno at 370 seemed low to me but whatever thats what it read.
Started launching at around 3500 and it would jump out and bog so i went up to 4k and still bogged i didnt want to go any higher because i figured id be pushing the limits of the rear. Tires were set at 21psi

Nice ET, shatty 60 though for running on 17" MT's. Easily an eleven second car with more practice, or willingness to beat the rear on the launch.
