Talking finally went 12's !!

Went to the track last night and came home with one of those 12 second timeslips !! The conditions were pretty bad. we had alot of humidity but I still managed to get a 1.77 60' and a 12.92@ 104.63 .... I hope to get into the mid 12's with better air. I'm glad to have become another memeber of the 12 second club. Thanks Johnny!! --Neil Minor

Gongratts on the new personal Best

I just joined the club today myself. I ran Ford Fun Weekend up at New England Dragway, we had a blast there was a great turnout , and I got my new JDM lower Pulley.

I ran a 12.92 at 105.66

When I got my time slip I was jumping up and down, I backed it up with a 2nd 12.93

It took me long enough but it was all worth it. I guess I have to change my signature

HIGH ROLLER,
I have the BFG radial drags in a 315/35/17. I took off my 22's at the track to find out that my new 17/11" special order rims are the wrong bolt patern. Lets just say that I will have a $1000.00 dollar coffee table now, or I can buy a chevy to go with the rims and tires, No, the coffee table idea will be better. I will just set the rims on the floor in my den and put a piece of glass on them. It will be a cool table to through magazines on.

Bill

rscoleman- I ran the truck on et streets . I rolled into it at 1/2 throttle thinking that the track was gonna be slick as usual. I just wish I launched harder, I know this truck should run mid 12's....

Don C- I think I met you at WFC this year. You helped me adjust my boost acc. , I had the silver 01 with the billet grills.

Thanks everyone!! --Neil

Hey nminor,

I'll see you at Bowling Green for the NMRA world event...
Congrats on getting in the 12's.... We talked a few times a couple of months ago about the possibility of FORD building a Supercab L...

I see a post where Roush is detuning a Harley truck with an L motor for 02..Something like 360 Hp..

I ended up getting a Red 01...
Take care,
DL
