12.7 NA, no power adders
Tonight at capital raceway in Maryland i ran my car with my current mods, which was the first of the year for me. Last year all my runs were with drag radials and now i finally fit on a pair of Hoosier slicks.
My very first run of the night was 12.784 @ 105.96 and my following runs were both 12.9's. I cant believe i ran a 12.7 with just bolt ons and not even that many at that. I tried to powershift through the gears but instead i let off the gas for each shift.
My mods right now are test pipes, Y-pipe, JWT clutch, PP, FW, AAM plenum spacer, JWT intake, and an AAM ECU reflash.
I have never launched like that in my life, i was thrown back in my seat and held there for all of first gear. The Chevelle Supersport i was racing had slicks and i toasted him all the way through. heres the timeslip if you dont believe me and sorry i couldnt get it on tape, i wasnt expecting to do so good.
Pulled a 1.5 60 foot on the slicks and the size of the slicks are 27x11.5x15.
The other car i was racing was a Chevelle Supersport with a 392 engine and slicks.

Are you running stock axles? If so, keep us posted on how those hold up to that stress.

yea stock axles, as long as i spin off the line, i wont worry about em snapping, and as long as i spin off the line, i wont bog down with those slicks, and thats how i nailed that 1.5 60ft.

Congrats, those are some nice times, I was planning on drag radials myself but 1.5 60 foot is unreal. I didn't think the stock axles could take that, now you got me wanting slicks.

How much and where did you get your set of slicks? I want a set of slicks as well for dragstrip purposes. Damn you make me so jealous! I cant even break 12's with my TT! lol but I am not a great driver as you so that justifies everything. Congrats bro!

Raptor,
Great meeting you tonite...and I can personally vouch for those times, I watched them all myself. I wish I had still had my camera with me so I could have caught that on tape!! I almost fell over when I went to intro myself and saw the naturally aspirated Z in front of me. *My fiance was a little miffed at me since I just placed all that money into the turbo!*
My best run on Street 19s with the turbo was 12.66 at 114.99mph for the evening. I'll post the time slip and maybe a vid clip of the event shortly.

i bought the pair of slicks on ebay for 275 shipped. i had to use wheel spacers to clear the brake calipers because the rims are 15's.
