Street Dreamz goes 12.89 @ 111 mph.
Haven't snapped a pic of the timeslip yet but, Hit it on the first pass. Made another pass just a few minutes later (there might have been maybe 40 cars at PRP last night) and had some issues with the spark breaking up at the top of 2nd and 3rd and managed to click off a 13.5 at 101. Then it rained! So it looks like the best I will hit with the Ion is a 12.89 without the bottle on a 1.90 60' time. I know there's more in it, but frankly I'm ready to move on to bigger things like a G8 GXP. Will get the timeslip up later.

rip it apart, put it back together better! Part of owning a race car is tearing it apart and putting it together.

Actually if you wait until next year the G8 will be a Malibu SS or caprice SS. Thats the 2 I've heard they might rename it but the G8 is going to become a chevy. Everyone liked it so much that they are going to keep it after pontiac is gone.

And damn didnt know running low 12's was so easy LOL. Especially because all it takes is power, and traction has nothing to do with it right? Good day.

you really dont know much about drag racing do you? There is nothing wrong with those times or numbers. If anything on the conservative side, and stop going by ******* dyno numbers, holy ****.

Lets go back to assuming something isn't right. Cause with over 320whp, I think we all expect better than a 12.8 miracle pass backed up by mid 13's.

My local dyno must be waaaayyy off. My 12.8 runs were @ 113-114 and 2.1 60's and I only put down 310 WHP. Not to mention my car is a pig.
I think with the spray you could bump me off the lsj lnf throw down.

Pardon me for making you look like a clown.....
1.90 60' says he got some decent traction to me....
OH SNAP!!! Looks like he actually did spend money on traction parts. He has suspension, slicks, and limiting chains. All 3 of those help traction.
