What are the tuned 11'/12' autos running roughly thru the 1/4?
What are the tuned 11'/12' autos running roughly thru the 1/4?
With Drag radials, CAI, and the 93 tune? Given my conditions are approximately 60-70 degrees and about 350 ft above SL.

Kilkare Dragway, Xenia, OH Thursday night Test n' Tune.
Bone stock car; 1/2 tank of gas+me = 3847 lbs. Stock tires [235/50/18 PZero Nero A/S], stock air, traction control set to Sport Mode. Track DA = 505.
1st Run: RT=.77; 60'=2.13; 1/4 ET=13.06@110.55 mph!
2nd Run: RT=.76; 60'=2.04; 1/4 ET=12.89@110.82 mph!
Corrected for DA = 12.84 @ 111.17 mph!
Definitely had wheel spin in 1st and 2nd on this run!
I'm happy with it.
Also- there was another guy I met there named Tony who had a 2011 GT, Red, with the Boss Intake, Steeda(?) Intake and tune, full exhaust setup, 4.10 rear with drag radials... He was asked to leave after his 2nd run because he ran an 11.4 and didn't have a cage! 11.4 with just bolt-on's?!?!

Did a 13.2 at Mason/Dixon with my automatic 5.0 GT last year with only a Bama tune, stock airbox, gearing, etc. Wheelspin was a HUGE problem. Thinking of acquiring a set of smaller-diameter wheels with slicks -- the smaller diameter would effectively lower the gearing. I get better launches on the street, see photo below of my 1/4 mile results on an unused public roads with a GTech accelerometer. The GTech mounts on the inside of the windshield just as a GPS does. In fact it is a kinda basic GPS in that it measures and times your travel with alignments from communication satellites. A fun and useful tuning device that can also measure 60-to-zero braking distance, top speed and torque and hp ratings. Prices range from $200 to $300.
Like dynomometers, the GTech is a valid comparison ony if the competing vehicles are tested on the same road under the same climaitic conditions.
As always, JMHO.

I ran a 12.3 with drag radials, 91 Oct race tune, c&l intake, ford racing after cat x pipe, flowmaster American thunder classic with no resonators,and 3.73. And all my runs were very consistent
