that stinks, I know exactly how you feel
Thanks! The tiny blower and glass transmission are killing me lol. Trying to max out my combo, like living on the edge haha. I have a nitrous kit on the car as well but didn't spray on those passes. I wanted to see if the trans would hold a low 10 before spraying. Getting bottle filled this weekCongrats! Nice passes!

Thanks. I think there's some et in it yet if I can figure out how to get it off the line (I bogged it bad on the 12.45 and spun all the way through 2nd on the 12.50). I was pretty happy with the trap speed though.Impressive runs with the stock 3v!

Yeah like Sactown said, some stickies would do wonders. My N/A car ran a best 13.20ish on performance all season tires. With the smallest Hoosier DOT drag radial I got it to 12.40's with a best 1.72 60ft. That was with the stock Shelby shocks/struts. With the new coilover setup I was able to cut a couple 1.60's. And proceeded to miss 2nd gear on both passes. I just wasn't ready for it. Unfortunately those wheels with the slicks on them won't fit over my new Wilwood brakes. Waiting for funds to get some 18's. I should probably put the 16's up for sale. Hint, hintFirst trip to the track with this car.
