Thumbs up New Best E.T. 12.846 on F1's

This weekend I made 12 runs quicker than 13.0. Still racin with stock tires, stock rear end gear, stock pulley. Passenger seat sill on, but hitch, tailgate, spare, and sway bar off. My best was:

R/T .863 (ughh.)
60' 1.879
330 blank
1/8 8.199
MPH 86.12
1000 10.705
1/4 12.846
MPH 105.28

I was hoping for a 12.7 but will have be happy with this. JL your new chip rocks!

Later
Dave

What tire pressure do you run and how do you launch? What other mods do you have done to your truck?

Nice runs Dave! I wish I did'nt have a strong headwind at GLD, I know I would've ran a 12! My mph was down by about 4. Man was it hooking though! I want a 12.99 before I add anything else. Lloyd

BlkSVTTruck,Great Job

With this great fall air setting in, I think we'll start seeing more L's in the 12's. I find it amazing how so many are breaking into the 12's on stock rubber.

Great Job, lets see some more 12's guys.

Ohhh man, looks like I will have to strap on the "bottle" to keep ahead of the field
But there's no one that could keep up with "project X"
I will be going to E-Town tomorrow night (on the F1's) for some test&tune

Awesome runs man! Was this at Byron? I am still waiting for my JL chip and ram air to be delivered. That should put me in the 12's I hope. So far I pulled a 13.2 at 105 on F1's with a 1.96 60ft. Can't wait! Running out of time for the season to race though.

Only if we get the rules changed. This year at WFC2000, if you ran in the 12's, it put you in the Pro Lightning Class.
By the way, lets hope that we get some sponsors for the Lightning classes at WFC2001.
Sal may not be in a position to, or even want to repeat his sponsorship after all that happened since May.
