Default Mach 1 runs 12.3 with basic mods..

Not me unfortunately, but RYGI. He did this with basic mods including gears, DRs, OR pipe, etc. He lists his mods. I thought this was damn impressive and worthy of its own thread here. Beats the hell out of talking DA for 3 more days, lol.

Thx stone, man I feel the love around this joint. I don't take all the credit ofcourse, like I said those conditions were absolutely perfect other than the track being short on rubber (1st day of season).

Nice pass. Even with a below sea level da, that is damn impressive.

I'm glad to see a geared Mach can pull off a 60' like that. 1.68 isn't anything to scoff at. You would think the MPH would drop though, so that's even better that he trapped what he did.... means there's still some power there to work with.

There could be a tad more left as I bogged a tad and spun 2nd a little, but a 100% perfect run on a less favorable day wouldn't touch that run I don't think. On two runs I trapped low and mid 111s. Gained 2.7 mph over previous best, same result as a friend w/ a Mach when he went o/r. Probably a little from conditions and a little from the o/r X.

Wonder how much gain could be seen from taking some weight off the front, in the form of skinnies. If anything it would help you to run that ET again on a less desirable day. Maybe look into some other lighter parts such as an aluminum driveshaft, etc.
