yea, its prety accurate to be honest with ya, it said 12.54 or 12.51 cant remember but its an awesome ride....I cant complain. I dont have a video of the car pullin the wheel...unfortunatley but hopefully this year i can get something.I do lots of bracket racing so plenty of opportunities to get a good video.

Well i disagree with lot of people here i made 312 all motor and can lift the front wheels on a 3800rpm launch...i run on monroe air shocks and Hoosier QTP...then with nitrous on a 2k launch i can pull the front wheel...its all about suspension when it comes to that...

also try running some ballast???

Right now it has stock struts up front, and Lakewood Lower control arms, Ford Racing uppers, stock springs, and some Monroe Sensatrack shocks or some sh#t. I just bought some Strange Engineering adjustable struts and shocks, so hopefully it launches a bit better since I put the C4 in it, it doesnt hit as hard with that but oh well....Iam happy and thats all that matters
