Yeah, check my album I have the time slips for all 4 of my runs. Would the limited slip even make a difference in the 1/4 mile? Would it help at all? Here's the time slip you want to see:



Until I get some traction... yeah

That's a great time, though. LSD wouldn't really help you all that much more anyways. Since the stock torque converter has a very low RPM stall point you can't launch high enough to where you'd need an LSD to help with traction. A 1.9x 60' on the stock tires is impressive, and without a high-stall torque converter you're not going to do much better with an LSD.

This is about the "perfect" run. Cool weather with big power, a quick shifting auto, and a great launch = one of the fastest stock 370 times we've seen to date.

Now, the sucky thing is, it's only going to get worse from here unless you start modding. Once the temperatures climb the power is going to drop and you'll be wondering why you can't do any better than a 13.2

But anyways, be proud. That's awesome.
