Default New Personal Best. Thank you MT ET Streets!

Well I cut 6 tenths off my et. Ran a personal best of 13.1. Thanks to everyone who helped me out in choosing these tires. I will have videos in a little bit.

Honestly I seriously think I would have cracked into the 12's if the track temps were not in excess of 107 degrees.

I am a stick with a hurst shifter. I got in about 9 runs all day. it took me a while to get the rpm's dialed in. First run I left at 3k rpm and bogged, but ran a 13.5. Finally I was launching at 4200 rpm without any spin. Car squatted perfectly. Ill have videos before the end of the night. Walking all over charger r/t's n ****. A Dodge Ram SRT10 smoked me though lol

Congrats Kyle! Still pissed I didn't get to go. It was crazy hot today though! Hopefully when I go Thursday night it'll be a little cooler!

The heat and humidity didn't help you a whole lot(stupid FL humidity), but not horrible either. DA corrected puts it somewhere in the 12.70's at 108mph. I bet with a few suspension mods with the same weather and driving you'd be in the 12's.

13.20's with 2.25-2.30 60's, 40+ year old suspension sucks!
Best trap 107.11mph, we'll see what the new intake/carb setup does.
12.80 at 110.5mph NHRA DA corrected

Thanks for the DA check 67! That really pumps me up lol. Chris, if I had a late game on Thurs I would come with ya. Ill def be in the 12's within the next few months. It was stupid hot this morning. I had to change my shirt after just swapping the front wheels/tires.

Its crazy that the only mods I had was a tune from Brenspeed...much better than VMP, and the ET Streets. I guess my 20's that I use for daily use really are that heavy. 6 tenths!!!! Crazy
