Congrats and nice run!!
Looks like this run was made in manual mode, correct?
Looks like Jim or whoever is driving is shifting right at 7,000rpms with the console shifter. You can see his body an head move.

Wow!!! ![bow](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/bowdown.gif)
And looks like those runs were at Fontana drag strip, definitely not an ideal place with the slight uphill track and high DA. Get that thing out to Famoso for some even better results!

Awesome run....pumped that GT-R hard too!
Imagine a AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT tranny swap with race start... a nice 4000 rpm launch would slice down that 60 foot and get you deep into the low 10's

Unfortunately the run was done at night so its a little hard to see whats going on, but if you look closely the cluster says S. We are hoping our next time out will be in the day time or with better camera angles. Let me know if this helps. Thanks!

Congrads to JCart for hanging with the SC project and the 10.8 1/4 mile time.![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
I could be wrong, but I seem to remember he has run about this fast in the past without a Supercharger and ported heads...?
Am I wrong...?

No, this and every pass I made was done in auto S mode. Next time I run if its a night event I will run with the interior light on you can see my hands more clearly and maybe even set up a second linked camera focused on the dash so you can see its not in M.
