Hell of a time there. I ran 129.79 on 295 PSS. Will run again with new 305 P4S and hopefully break into tens.

Ran early this year in hot 90 Deg Florida day at Brandenton and best time was high 11.4s @ 125. Consistent runs but just could not hook up nor get a decent 60ft (1.9 or higher if I remember correctly).
As a comparison, a friend with his E55 with upgraded Weistec supercharger and slicks dynoing 600rwhp got a best of 11.0 early morning and then mostly 11.2 that same day. Another with his stage 2 RS7 ran a best of high 10.8.
However put all three cars on rolling starts and the GT comes up top.

What was your 60 foot time? 129 is well into the 10s.
