with a trap of 110 he'd either have to launch quick and hard to get a 12.10 and or if he is spinning that bad..after he hooks up he'd really have to haul butt on the top end and that'd be evident by more mph up top ...12.10's @110 are possible with a good launch but I launced soft in mine 3800 rpm's and ran 12.20's@112 so his time is believable but with only a trap of 110....there ain't much left in it for lower et unless of course he hooks quick and hard.. my guess is he's not spinning as bad as he says or thinks

I'm surprised noone has mentioned this yet... what tires was he on? If he was on some slicks or M/T's, then I'd say its possible.

Read his post again. He tells what he was running.

I'm still calling BS, I don't think with his setup and 8psi untuned (who races a blown car that hasnt been tuned yet anyway? sounds like a retard) that he'd run deep 12s, its just not that easy to do especially when you don't get a solid hook off the line.

oxyncobra you ever run your stang at the track, seems like you have a respectable amount of work into that motor, what's your est. rwhp? anyway sweet stang dude.
Thanks man, never been dynoed or ran at the track. As soon as it gets warmer here and I get it on the road I plan on at least getting to the track, so I should have some sort of numbers for my car soon be it whp or ET. Because of the sharks on this forum I would rather not guess my whp numbers.

I'd just ask for a time slip(or take it to the track and watch it run)...low 12's are usually 112,plus....with very little or no spin...If he is SPINNING...MPH is usually HIGHER....for the E.T....
