I'm really glad I got such a good run in. It's a nice baseline to compare to when the cam goes in

Check the sticky at the top of this section. I went 12.7 my first time out on drag radials with a tune, otherwise 100% stock.

You are just like me thats crazy... Last novemeber i brought my 99 coupe with wagon wheels and sumitumos and ran a 12.91 exactly with a 110 trap.
115k miles stock original clutch!
This weekend is the last run for our track for the year. Since them I have a ported fast 90 90, ram powergrip hd clutch, headers, exhaust, 239 242 649 609, built trans, new motor, andmore i cant think of. Im making arround 425 Hp rear wheel.
I since wore the sumitomos out and i tried the good year eagle F1 d3... and I must say the sumitomos are a better tire for traction they spun less worn completely bald than brand new goodyears.
We will see what i manage to run...
