All Show and No Go my A$$...............12.12@110.49

Who said us show guys don't care about the go.,
I went after my all time best.Went full race trim.Skinny fronts(thanks to RobG) ,Weight reduction(4700-No tonneau,tailgate,Pass.seat,MTX) and some race fuel.The results were very pleasing.

RT-.401( I like the color red)
60-1.71
1/8-7.71
1/4-12.12 @ 110.49

I backed this up with a 12.14@110.36 w/ a 1.70 60 ft.

This is on a stock torque converter.

11s are not far behind.

Thanks,
The emblem is actually Jims@ JDms.Run351(john) made it for him .I just borrowed it.
He just took a stock emblem and painted it black and put a lightning sticker on it.It looks very cool.

Congrats on the run. A few more goodies, and you will get the 11's. Now, just do that on the big wheels and that would be kick A$$.

HeHe. Ask Jim where he got that Lightning Emblem from . Great Weekend and great runs by all. I made it to the semi finals. I should have made it to the finals since i cut a .507 light and killed the kid off the line. But since it was my first time bracket racing i dialed in to low and got beat. I thought that the one who crossed the line first wins. Oh well you live and learn i was happy though since i ran my best ever of 12.85 with a 1.78 60 ft and .534 light. All on stock converter ,stock 3.55 gears and Jim's warm weather program .
