Post Finally got decent numbers!!!

The weather at Atco tonight was great! Look at the sig for new best times. Anyone think I can hit 12's without doing anything else as the weather gets colder later this year?

I dont want to be th party pooper but I dont think there is a way in hell you will get 12's if it is snowing!!! I think your numbers are outstanding!!! I would say for your mods your car is running great. It may have a 13.3 flat or 13.275 but I dont think there is much more in the current setup. Hopefully I am wrong. We will see what the others say. Take care

I think that I have a shot at 12's the was I sit, and here's why. Back in March this year, with only a ported cat, K&N CAI, and flowmaster muffler, I went 13.632@102.5 with 2.14 60' time. Best time before that was a 13.99@99.4 in hot weather. Best time with the new mods in "hot" weather has been a 13.48@104.42. That's a .5 and 5 mph increase. If I can take the 60' down another .1 and catch a nice cold dry day this fall, I think I have got it.

I think you have a shot at solid 13.1-13.0. You would need absolute traction to have a hope at 12's....but anything is possible.
Go to cecil county dragway in the fall,if you have a chance at 12's,it will be there.
