Packed house tonight at WSID. I hold the golden 60' ticket. Hauled the tank over the 60' in a whopping 1.761. ET wasn't so great as I shifted way to early into 4th. 12.420 @113mph. I think with this 60' I should have managed an ET of 12.2 @114mph considering my last effort a few weeks ago. My car managed to gain an extra 5kgs and weighted in at 1630kgs tonight without me. Race weight would be 1720kgs with me. May as well drop my N54 into an X5. Will post slip tomorrow. Overall pretty happy considering my other two runs were in the low 13's.

Solid 60ft!! Can you put it on a diet? I think the carpet and interior trims alone would weight 100kg (exaggerating), they are crazily thick and dense!

I dont think you will get down to 12.2 with that MPH, even at 114, you still have to accelerate a hefty amount in top track to get the time. What tyres etc?

Nice 60ft time!

You definitely should be able to get to 12.2 with a better run, last week I did a 12.030 @ 113.99mph.

Thanks Dale. I did reconsider having that hotdog at WSID last night.
I also removed my log books and all my CD's and junk in the glove box. Must have been a contributor to the 60'.
The plan was to keep this car as it was factory a 13.8 second car.
Tyres are Federal RSR's with open diff so nothing special there just a special driver Did a big single spinner burnout but.

Vinney's car is a freak! I have no idea how he got a trap speed of 117mph. A good launch with meth will see him in the 11's

It's gonna be tough as your 12.2 time is just amazing without meth or LSD.

Thanks guys. I think I'll have a hard time cracking the 12.2 barrier though. You guys are pulling out some great 60ft's and ET's.

Well done Edwin..

A member of our Gym was at EC last night and was telling about a hot black 135 vert..
I am assuming it was yours.

He ran 12.43 @112MPH in a Yellow Nissan 370Z vert.

That's a really quick time for a Zed and I'm pretty sure you can't make them fast without going FI. What mods did he have?? He's about as quick as FBO 135i's with that trap speed.

That was me and that was a really nice 370z. I saw him run an 12.8.

Just checked dragtimes and your mate has the fastest Zed on dragtimes. He traps 112 and the fastest recorded is 111mph. Most of them are around 105-108mph though. The fastest ET is 12.2 and the second fastest is 12.8! Do you know if he's uploaded his time-slips? Sounds too good to be true.

Last night was really grippy. More temp helps. My wrx ran 11.06 @ 124 with 1.58 60 foot on street tyres. Did not quite make the 10..... But close. Run was not perfect. There is a 10 in it.
