MNM5ETR Rolls a 12.16 at Rock Falls, WI (Stock)
Fellas:
The goal was to bust in the 12.20's. Did that and then some!
I see ChicagoX (I think) also turned a 12.1 (12.13 to be exact) at a midwest meet over the weekend.
My 12.16 was my personal best (1.799 60' time) at about 113.5 MPH (Stock). My best MPH was a bit over 115 with a 12.36 ET. I ran a bunch of 12.20's, too.
The temp was upper 40's-lower 50's. The cooler temps and dry air definitely makes a difference wiht the Kompressors.
A few other noteworthy late model cars were there, too:
996 TT Stage 4 (628 HP at the wheels) - 11.05@ 134
Viper with Paxton Charger (650 at the wheels) 11.1 in the 135+ range
...and, the surprise of the day, new C6 Z06 who was having lots of trouble coming out the hole was only running 13.0 in the 117-119 MPH range. Personally, I thought the track was really sticky and can not understand all the trouble getting it to hook-up. I will likely meet up with the 911/Viper/Z06 guys again. Any advice for the Z06 driver? I think if he started in 2nd gear he should run a mid 12...
I will post some of my timeslips.

Very aggressive burn-outs (like 20-30 second burns) to heat the tires
Pre-load to about 1050 RPM, Foot to the floor...
I have Toyo Proxes T1 R's (275's in back)
Super sticky tires and decent ride/handling.
$685 for a brand new set of 4 (delivered).
Sending a fax to jucee63 to post some time slips.
Race #1 was best ET of the day
Race #2 was versus a 911 TT (FAST)
Race #3 was my best trap
As a note, my first run of the day haunts me...
Went to the line after my burn-out with the temp gauge at 40, I had not properly burned the tires, the track was ICE COLD, and forgot to turn the ESP back on. Needless to say golden opportunity was blown (blew up the tires).
Next year...
