3/4 tank of fuel(man was that dumb) mixed 91 with 100
my mods are listed in my sig

First two runs produced a personal best 12.29 and a 12.299 @114.5 and 114.8

I was happy figured I had reached a threshold, car was just not going faster...I wondered maybe I need to go home, but I lined up for one last pass. This was at 3pm..........A car oils down the track and it takes another 40 minutes to clean, then they decide to let the big boys go....ugh another 1 hour passes. at 5:29pm I finally get to the tree.

I was laughing at the end of the run, I knew it was my best , I figured 12.24 @115.........

I look WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Took 9 months but WOW!!

12.110@115.68 It feels incredible to be so close to 11's. Thanks to all of you that have helped me accomplish this,

Man you are wasting some great temps to run the car, Id hit the track ASAP bro, you gotta be the first West Coast "stocker" to go sub 12. Gather some of the ladies from the other thread and get to SACRAMNETO. Have your SON drive

It was nice to meet you Juicee

PM me and let me know when your going back to Famoso or taking a trip to Sac. I believe I might run CMI's in Sac on March 9th and maybe Famoso March 2nd, we shall see.
