The last one is the first two put together, there is only two slips total and my car number was 1506.

nothing but looking at the video, and trying to see when the G8 crosses the line at 12.4 and try to count till I cross. That is kind of hard tho. Put my 12.995 up there and I will hit it again next time for sure.

11s will happen on the stock turbo. We are already trapping 114 and just getting started. We have the stock IC and a conservative tune running 93 octane. Considering that 114mph is already 11 second MPH, I don't see why 11s wouldn't be possible with slicks, IC, and a little more boost.

114 might be a good trap for 11's. but the faster you run the slower you will trap. Not to mention when you throw slicks on their you'll probably loose another mile or two.

We shouldn't lose MPH when we put slicks on. Sure, spinning and getting a poor sixty foot can result in higher mph traps, but that's not where we're at. We have the first gear torque table turned way down to keep from spinning on street tires. Once we switch to slicks we will have the opportunity to use a lot more power in 1st gear, raising the average power throughout the pass. We will also have the advantage of lighter rims/tires which will help offset the power loss of running less air in the slicks.

Who decided what our short times will be? You? Also, are you skipping the parts about an upgraded IC and more boost? We already dyno'd 20whp higher than the setup that trapped 114. If the new IC is worth even 10whp, we will already be looking at 117+ traps. I would think that you would understand how people like us steadily make more and more power and trap speeds increase accordingly. Why do you act like where we are at now is the limit of our abilities?

with those 117mph traps you might be trapping higher than his lowly blower car

Yes, with the tiny stock turbo and pump gas we will run traps similar to what his upgraded blower should run with race gas. Whether he has actually run those traps or not will be a mystery. When we swap turbos we will trap 125+.
