best ET 13.8 @ 102 mph

since my first time at darlington i was disapointed with my times so i've removed my system (350 lbs) spare/jack and backseat. i have also purchased nitrous so hopefully i'll be running somewhere in the 12's

I'd guess you'd be in the 12's IF it hooks. Make a motor baseline before so you can get a "feel" for the car without the extra weight.
