No actually I turned around and had a 12.91 at 113.5 pass right after the 12.8.

I really wish I wasn't working 6 days a week. My spot is getting encroached on. I know there is way more in my car but I don't have a chance to get tot he strip. I'm thinking if I ever get back when there in some good weather I can bang a 12.3 @ 115.

I am getting the updated tune from trifecta and run alittle more boost(at 21psi now) Whith my slicks on, if the spacers ever show up, I am hoping for 12.0-12.3 run. Hopfully.

so you mean the wing didnt rob you of 5mph like you thought? imagine that.

for the short term memory folk:

im just saying, you honestly believed your wing made you slow down 5mph. common sense.

yea, I'm sorry to pop the bubble, but a wing delete won't really do a damn thing in a quarter mile drag race. No difference at all.

Got my new wheels, got my M&H Racemaster 24.5 x 8.5 x 15 tires now.

Getting them mounted/balanced tomorrow, and doing any caliper grinding needed.

Going to remove my cat next week, and as soon as I get my 2step/nls box from Blazin I am going to hit the track again.

I'm not happy that I dropped down to 8 on the list, think I need to step it up a bit

there is only a hand full of lsj owners trapping high enough to see the effects of the wing. 113mph is not enough
