Default Increased my 1/4 mile ET

I'm very happy with my 4.10 gears. Before I ran a 12.5, and now I ran a 12.1 Very satisfied!

That's a good 60ft and ET, but isn't your trap speed still kinda low? What were other cars trapping?

trap speed does sound low. I've trapped that before with a 13.1

I have no idea why my trap speed is on the low side. Maybe it has something to do with my twin screw giving me boost right away and then leveling out. I noticed I'm right around 4500rpm crossing the finish too.
Now I want high 11's I'm SO close! I forgot how much fun it is to go to the track and run against different cars. There was an older Corvette that was running high 10's. That guy had alot of money in it.

Awesome time! But yeah, your trap speed does sound low to me. But good ET, you can almost taste an 11. Mmmm. 11's.
I want to go to a track so badly, I almost regret getting a convertible. No chance in hell am I putting an ugly roll bar on just so I can run once every two months though.
