500 hp and it runs 12.98 @ 108? Something doesn't quite add up.

And some people obviously don't know when they're beat!

Your friend's car sounds ill. If your car is faster, it should be just barely. Exhaust / ignition shouldn't let you put buslengths on a car that just as fast as your car was stock.

Its my cobra in the video....

With the OLD combo, I ran 12.98 @ 109mph at 6000ft above sea level on a HOT, 8% humidity day. Three different vipers (450hp ones) ran 13.4-13.6 that day.. It honestly felt like I was pulling a trailer down the track.

That run was with the old combo (450rwhp) and at [B]6000ft above sea level on a HOT, 8% humidity day.

That's why I said that instead of freaking out screaming BS. I am all too familiar with the trials & tribulations of both getting a car to high HP levels and then getting it to all work when you hit the track. My luck is bad enough that I've considered trademarking "John's Luck".

My "other" car is a Grand Marquis LSE ( http://moojohn.com/stealth/mercury ). It's no Cobra, but it's doing 15.0s which ain't bad for what it is. It will wear an Eaton when the Stealth is paid off, with my goal being 12.90s without going inside the engine. Nobody said you can't go fast in style.

Its not that things aren't coming together, its that there is no air up there to make any power at that elevation.

I'm sure that at a lower elevation I could turn in a shallow 10 time slip with my current combo.
