that guy must have sucked at driving.

there are a couple of people over at svtperformance.com with my mod's and STOCK gear's went 12.7 or 12.6.

as far as the track prolly ubly. lapeer suck's damn dirt road and milan i wont get enough run's in.

this may take a couple trip's to the track. seeing how i learned how to driev a stick last may

im not sayin i will do it, but if it was possible. my current best e.t. was a 13.3 on street 555's spining till top of second with that nasty wheel hop[:@]and a 3rd gear sync that is fudged. so i am not the best of a driver yet. lol[8D]

4.30s and 310rwhp are going to over power any DR. Since you'll be feathering the crap out of it, I'd say mid 12s, no problem. Get some slicks and your very close to 12.0.
Over power any DR? I doubt it. There are cars running single digit times on the BFG DRs. It's all a matter of suspension and gooddriving.

The ET streets are supposed to be even better.

I think a 12.5 would be a good run for your car, esp if it is at full weight. Cars with low 300ish rwhp that run into the 11's usually are really light. Consider this. I run mid/high 11's @ 113-114 mph, but that is with a 1.5 60 foot. My car is right around 370 rwhp and weighs 3500 lbs with me in it. Yes we own two totally different cars, but power to weight is a pretty univeral measurment.

Soo your Car is For Sale and ur still modding it??? I dont think you have a chance to hit 11's.... ive just seen too many 03 Cobras with 400+ hp hit LOW 12's........and Built suspension or not they had some 1.8-1.9 60ft times. Soo you with about 70whp less I dunno.... Fill us in when you go to the Track
