HFC + Exhaust + Intake = 12's?

Plus 91 octane ownz people in LA. You won't get the best times in LA. East Coast usually gets the best times.

Another good point, what can we get to run decent 1/4 ?

water/meth injection.

or use a couple of gallons of race gas with your normal tank of 91 octane. (ie: 10 gallons 91, 2-3 gallons of race gas)

As usual, people seem to be fixated on E.T. when really the trap-speed matters much more on a street-car. Quick E.T.s are nice, but it really is meaningless as soon as you drive off the track onto an un-prepped, bumpy, dirty public road, where as the trap-speed is more of an indication of how fast the car actually is (as well as the MPH delta between 1/8-mile and 1/4-mile).

I would rather see consistent 112+ MPH runs over 12s.

Well since most races are based on who can get to the finish line first I could see why most people would rather have a fast ET instead of a high trap. I ran in an event recently and was matched up against a super light QR sentra twice during the qualifying rounds and he beat me both times by 1 tenth and was only trapping 95mph. I think my highest trap that day was 101 I believe. I was 4 tenths and 4 mph slower than usual because of the heat.

Well I'm going to try WIR in kaukana once i get these crappy bridgestones off my car (just going to use a better street tire no DR for me) and on a cool 50 degree day here i don't think i'll hit 12's but i should be able to run a 13.0-13.1 pass considering i could run a 13.62 on a bad track in high heat. maybe i'll bring the camera along for poops and giggles. got a friend with 6.0L GTO and he wants to see if he can hit 12.79.
