12.929 - 1/4 et (89 octane)
105.39 - 1/4 mph
It was my first time out with my battery mounted in the trunk, with 8psi in the slicks launched at 4500 and i heard a bang under the car, turned out to be my driveshaft hitting the safety loop, my motor mounts are shot. along with my upper control arms as it turns out. I short shifted 1st hopeing i didnt break something, but stayed in it hard so i could outrun the honda rice next to me, That wasnt too hard only run i did.
All i can say is, humidity was so bad last night here, felt like I was in florida.

Hey 82 gt, If you had a 5spd, i bet your car would trap 107 easy, those auto's can kill mph as we all know.....later

How is it that we run almost identical numbers and you still run a higher mph? Your engine must pull harder than mine after the 1/8..
What rpm are you at through the traps? I'm at 6K, which is about where my cam is finished at. Could that be why I'm running out of "steam"?
