I've seen higher traps than 115, but I'm sure he'll be beating those soon.

For the record, Alberto ran an 11.98 @ 116 on et streets. I ran 12.3 @ 113 on street tires, but I've only been to the track a few times and made very few passes.
AJ's is definitely the "fastest" we've seen.

I trap higher then that with my G35, but my fastest time is a 12.7.
That 60' time is absolutly disgusting. My best 60' time (on stock tires) is a 2.1. Out of the hole he has 0.5 seconds on a 'street prepped' car with an average driver.
I would kill for a 60' time like that.....

Good for you. I too have retirement (401K and IRA's), 2 kids with a 3rd on the way, pre-paid college funds, two mortgages, 3 car payments, but I never brought them up until now that you decided to call me out.
What's your point? I never bragged about my money. All I said is I can afford to do chit the right way right off the bat. I am sorry you can't go big with your car like you would like too.

peak numbers don't mean **** .. you said so yourself.. who cares if the car made 1000 whp at 7000 rpms when it was at 300 by 6000 rpms.. any car with a healthier power band is going to be faster

The fact is you said that AJ's car made the "most" power out of any Turbonetics ST car. That statement was wrong. Even Jetpilot's car was making more power. Lets move on.
