well went to munice dragway today. the first run i ran a 13.399@ 110mph "BUT LOST MY HOOD" at the 1/8 mile. yes it was latched down but it had a 6 inch crack in it up by the front edge so i think is just turned in to a parachute and just blew apart. my last and best time was 13.163@115. i forgot to turn off the traction control off the whole day. i feel like a noob oh well atleast i had fun

a 115 trap should be good for low 12's/high 11's depending on weight. what kind of 60's were you getting?

hey man I was running your exact same times at the 1/4 mile the other day too!

it seemed that my 2 passes @ 115 were slower (13.1) then my 111 pass (12.9)

haha crazy your hood blew apart. What setup are you running?

A 115 trap is good for deep 11s......but pics, vids, timeslip, something or it did not happen.

What mods?
