Nah !!! my goal was a 10.9999999 or better
With a 75 shot I better go faster if stays together.....but a single will give me 10.7 or faster.......you'll see.

I agree. That is pretty incredible. Your FD must've been pretty close to pulling the front wheels off the ground on the launch to get a number like that...

EDIT: Oh yeah, sorry, I couldn't view the vids for some reason.

Congratulations. I knew you'd hit a 10 based on everything else. Driver is a huge part of it. As for the run itself I'm pretty surprised by how it came about, low ET and low 60' but also low MPH compared to your other runs. 60' really takes the cake with ET.

Wasn't there some halfwit with a Camero arguing with me here that exactly what John just did was impossible? That the hard launch would result in a lower mph was impossible to him? Where is he now?

You should find out if Atco has an altitude correction factor and use that time instead since it's only fair to you. Just curious what was the ambient air temp btw?

Grats again. Extremely nice launch btw. Far better than I ever came close to.

That Camaro guy obviously doesn't spend much time paying attention at the dragstrip. Better launches (60 ft time) quite often result in lower mph trap speed with quicker ET. You don't have as much distance to build speed, because you got out of the hole so quickly. "First half of the strip determines your ET, second half determines your mph."

Thats freakin awesome on stock twins. Friend of mine did the non sequential setup on his stock twins and I didn't think they where capable of times like that. Nice 60' time as well.

Congrats...I really have my work cut out for me now. I am hoping for 11.5X et next time at the track.

What was your best time on stock ports? (Wondering if 11.5 is possible on stock ports, stock twins?)

Are you running stock wheels all the way around?

What tire pressure are you using in your rear tires?

What did the car weigh with you in it?

Sorry for so many questions....
