Took my car to the track for the first time since my PTK install.. I was running on 18" street tires :P

My timeslip below, my time is on the left :D

Here is a short vid of the run, it looks so slow...LOL

I'm quite certain that I will see over 125mph if I swap gears and go with 3:27's.

Saw your run! Nice and quick! BTW that Twin Turbo Buick Regal that lined up behind you was crazy! Ghetto twin turbo to the max!

But I bet your dad's car is a dedicated drag car with a drag suspension and slicks ???
What sort of 60' time does your's dad car run ??

I think Brad's car has a street suspension and he's on real street tires,which means he has problems hooking up.

yeah, that's true. Also if he works on his R/T 11's should be easy.

Reaction time has nothing to do with ET. The clocks don't turn on until you cross the beam. Reaction time is how long it takes you to break the beam from the time the light turns green.

I'm not sure if you know this but Toma and 89Coupe are 2 different people with 2 different cars. Toma went 11.1@131 89coupe went 12.6@121.
