Mine is a sport/touring 7AT and at Bradenton Fl, I was knocking down 13.3@104 (all stock) and I am kinda portly at 235 lbs. Since then, FI CBE, FI test pipes installed (very noticible improvement in power delivery) G3s on order and an appointment for uprev when stillens are installed. If I don't hit 12s, I'll either get the 4.08s or a membership to Jenny Craig......  |
Luck and perfect weather had a lot to do with it IMO. I've only ever had one run in the 12's and that was my first one. Haven't gotten back into the 12's since then, even after installing a CBE and HFC.
