My First 12 second run

I may have the first 12 second 03....I know it is my first 12 second. I was running on F1's with full street weight on truck...even the spare...LOL. I have a beautiful set of hoosiers that I couldn't use due to getting the wrong lugs from Weld. We found out they were wrong at the track...sheeotttt.

I was the left lane

LOL...it was a Corvette...a Blue one...newer model. And I don't know if he had juice. I was worrying about my own issues.

I did tell the guy that if I had to get my *** kicked, it was an honor to have it be a Corvette.

I was hoping for 12.2's.... .

My spare tire and hard cover come off for the next runs. That was my first experience with running at a track. Maybe with some practice and experience I can get a few 10th's reduction based getting better at driving.


Thanks everyone. I did have a real crappy slip for my very first run...I had a car beside me with open headers and between that and trying not to **** my pants, I slammed the peddle to the floor and slid side ways the first 1/8th mile down the track. It sure looked cool, but the time was crap.

Here it is....
I am 8421...right lane this time

Glad you made the club man!!!

I think SUPERFORDS had the first 03 in the 12's but its cool man, we are all a team working to be the best!!!

You have KILLER MPH!!! 12.40's easy with better traction!

I do believe your right...I'll take the second L in the 12's. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have beat me to it...maybe I can beat him to the 11's with no juice...I'm on a rod testing mission...LOL.
