are you sure the race weight is 3800 lbs? my 94 Z28 was corner weighted at 3590 w/ me in it (180lbs) and over 1/2 tank of fuel. no jack or spare, but i have AC and all seats, carpet, etc.

My Race weight, 3640 lb. even.
12.40 @ 113.5 MPH on a 1.9 60-foot.
Livernoi's Dynojet chassis dyno showed 396 RWHP but with lots of tuning-related dips in the torque curve.

With 115 MPH and a good launch you should be in the 11.7 to 12.0 second range. You have probably 400 RWHP, maybe more.

this is kinda what i wanted to hear.......

the night i ran was too cold to hook and i still have no stall......

last i measured my car it weighed in at 3560(without me.....i weigh a little over 200

but then again i did have about 150 lbs of stereo equipment in my car which i dont have anymore so i would say my race weight would be 3600-3650

thanks for reminding me

anybody else who trapped in or around that .....what did u run

And that's probably with a bad 60ft. if your et is only 13.3 with a 107mph trap speed. You should be in the high 12s.

I was once told that the rule of thumb is that from 16 sec. to 10 second E/T's, for every 0.1 seconds you reduce your 60-foot time, your E/T will reduce by .2 seconds. Thus, your 12.5 second E/T can become a 12.0 second E/T if you manage to stick your launch and get the 60-foot time to below 1.75 seconds.
