Default got my 12 finally (vids)

12.89 with a 1.92 60ft 104.8mph. about 5psi boost launch. still had 100* intake temps, i had just gotten there after a 45min drive. so it was running about 16* of timing. i would love to see what it would do with cooler iat's. i thought i was going to get to find out being that it was 70* out. but after a nicee long cool down i went up there and with a 7psi launch i broke another axle. same one i just replaced.

there is nothing better than a tech guy walking up to make sure your in the right lane (12.99 and faster). the guy wals up and puts his tac mark on my windshield and starts to walk off. then he takes a double look and says "this thing go 12.99 quicker?" i say "yeah first run it went 12.89" he says "holy ****" with bg wide open eyes and jaw on floor and walks away.

when i first pulled up i ask the guy in the mustang beside me "hey is this the 12.99 faster lane" he says "yeah" i said "ok" and shut the motor off. the look on his face was price less. of course ever body start had to see why or how it was possible.


here are the vids. fist one 12.89 sorry for the fuzzy ending. the second vid i broke the axle. watch the right tire blow up in smoke.

vids are taking for ever to load

Congrats again on the 12.89.

Sorry to hear about the broken axle.

How did you get home?

Next time get them to match you up with someone that runs slower than a 9.6 .....LOL

thanks guys. it sucked having to run against some of those cars. it seemed like the cars running my times were avoiding me. i actually drove the truck almost all the way home. no issues until i had to make a sharp turn. then there were issues. i was about 5 miles from home. i borrowed a tailor and a dodge cummins and just brought it home. that cummins is the first truck to ever tow me and make my hoe feel light.

Thanks, I'm going to do some work for a guy and he is going to buy me a new axle. so it worked out. still going to upgrade to the 14bolt though. then I'll see about that 60ft.
