12.308@116.7mph!!!! HELL YES!!!!
A RAN A ****** 12.308 LAST NIGHT!!!!!!! I DID IT!!!! 
excuse the shitty scanner quality, i used the office coppier at work, but i'm car 339 in the right lane....
I launched at about 5500rpm and they spun for like two second and just ****** hooked like nothing..... For the first time i used full throttle all the way through the damn quarter and had a 116mph trap!!!!
Unfortunately that was the only run I could do that night, I went around again, revved it to 6 grand, dumped the clutch and heard... SCRRRRRR BANG!!!... So now i've successfully snapped BOTH of the halfshafts in the axle leading out of the tranny.... When we get the axles on, I might even need a new clutch I'm thinking... The tranny itself seems to be okay.... thats a good thing at least
BTW...if you're wondering.... the left lane driver is a kid with a 99-04 V-6 Mustang..... lol he kept looking over and revving with his K&N filter and actually laughed when he saw me put my helment on.... The only time he was ever close to me during the entire race was at the staging line
"Whoa man do you got like a 300 shot of NOS?" he asked after we were done. "That sounded like a four cylinder! I mean I have a V-6 man! What the the hell!"
Kids these days are watching way too much Fast and Furious....

Good job on the times. Glad to finally see it can run 12's.

Too bad my car's out of commision for a while... Gotta wait until the next paycheck to get some new axles, and we're gonna put the new head gasket on this Friday, the engine's already torn apart now, we're just waiting on the part
