Best pass before was a 12.23@110.89 with a 1.69 60 foot time. Bone stock motor, stock headers, stock wheels, etc
Added CJ Drag springs and BBK longtubes which goes against my "one part at a time" mentality but I have been rained out so often this year I could not test.
Went to Cecil on a Friday night. Air was good but wasn't great for a November at Cecil. I have not raced at Cecil on a Friday night in years and the place was PACKED. Waited an hour for first pass. Launched at 4000 and bogged 1.81 60 foot 12.32@111 MPH was promising Made about 5 more passes and every pass either bogged or spun 12.29-12.31 every pass but the MPH was 111-112. The longtubes were making power
I finally got behind a car that put down some good rubber and launched aggressively (4500) but not full bore. Car finally hooked decent but didn't leave as hard as it has before 1.74 60 foot time 12.22@112.51 If I could have matched my previous best 60 foot that was a least a deep 12.teen if not a 12.0!! I lined up against a similar S197 GT at the end of the night but the car in front of him broke and my tires got cool waiting and the pass sucked.
Gonna try again on Saturday. I still think an 11.99 on the stock wheels with a stock throttle to pan motor is possible on a PERFECT pass!! If not serious weight reduction, drag wheels, and slicks are next!
