The track i run at always has a 30 mph head wind and some believe there is a slight incline at the end. The da always to be around 1200 too. i have ran at another track and trapped 118 with a worse 60'. As for my time i was on my way to finally getting my first run in the 11's but my motor blew when i slammed it into fourth. I ran 7.7 @86mph in the 8th and the motor had already blown normally i would be at 94 mph. i figure i would have got 7.5 in the 8th and should have been good for a 11.7-11.9. I still ran a 13.1 with no fourth gear.
Soon i should be running low 11's all day with my new motor. I am hoping to put down at least 520 whp on 91 octane.

Here's the video of the run:
