Default Got my 10 today!

Ran a 10.97 @122.25 w/1.52 60' on my slow DRs :D
A few folks, "How can something that looks so stock run.....w/o juice" :lol:
Same set-up I had in SC, banging the rev limiter at the top end.
Lost in the 2nd round.......11.045 on a 11.05 w/115mph......on the brakes but not enough!
Once I get my TC lock-up switch or taller tires...... :reddevil
RPM was represented in Richmond too!

Thanks guys,
JJ will tell ya I had just a little fun and a smile
The quest for 1.4X 60's on DRs continues......
DA was between-775 & -289 through the day.
As for runing 10.7s.......considering it has stock 245/45/17 runflats on the front, TR6 plugs in it, weighs 3680, run with a full tank of pump gas and hitting the rev limiter on 1-2 a few times and on the top end every time........it has some more in it . I will tweak it before I go out again and before I run slicks....and hit the button. Might get thrown out the 1st time :reddevil
Ron & Ron..................you can both run faster :yesnod: :jester
