Let me know the next time you go to Atlanta Dragway and I'll go and break something.

I need to go, I know the car is capable of going a bit faster then the record now. But I have some other things going on that have to come first. I have used the drag radials for about 9-10 passes. Sadly I thought I ran them near street tire pressures and I was running 25psi. But even with 25psi launching from 5500 RPM I was pulling great 60 foot times considering I was side by side with the 2013 SHO out of the hole.

If I had to guess I was pulling 2.0-2.1 60ft times. My fastest previous time was a 14.0 @ 103.5 with a 2.4 60ft. So even with a 2.1 60ft that is already a 13.7. Plus the car has had some changes to it and is now running better AFR's, less weight,2.5" catback and a fixed shifter. I know the car can run mid 13's. Yeah its all bench racing until I actually do it. BUT look at the facts.

The facts? They were timing 60' times at the convention? :munch:

Only if you kept all four tires on the track.
How fast did you try to take three?

Not fast really, the problem was drag radials and bald back tires. Clay was with me, probably about 40mph.

My car was still a inspected street legal car that never saw a trailer, and barely cracked 218 FWHP. I was also only running a 75 shot and was on street tires (Not drag radials or slicks), yet I was able to easily match your times. Time to pull some weight Brian...
