Ive been making it a point to get to the drag strip a few times a year, just for fun and to change things up a bit, and finally Drag racing success!! finally got my 12's! Been chasing for a while. Yes, I know my R/T is terrible, I dont really care. I never try for good reaction times, and yes my 60' is horrible too...its what the car does on bald street tires and old dry road race slicks...oh well... Still got the 12.xx Ive been wanting!

Also did some hard parking at our last MDU pro am event because my arm was broken and in a cast...super bummed!

At that MPH you should be in the low 12's... I ran a 12.4 at 114 with the same reaction time.

However, like Xoxide said, please use the link he provided.

Oh yea. The car should go below 12.5 without much trouble. I just can't get traction out of the gate. A 2.0 60' leaves a lot of meat on the bone for improvement.

I might try to make it back this fall with some borrowed radials and see if I can get into the 1.8-1.9 range.

Not bad. Congrat's on getting a time you've been chasing. now to shave a few tenths.
