I took the boss to the Shannonville drag strip tonight and had a blast. I did five 1/4 mile passes total. My best pass was 12.98, with trackey on the stock pirelli's. It was my first time on a timed track and there was definitely a bit of a learning curve. Total fun though! Slip below (I was 7)

 

Nice. What do the charge to run your car?

Nice MPH and times for running stock tires. What was your launch RPM and your shift RPM?

It was a mix and match night, $25 gets you in and as many runs as you want.

 

Man and I had my BOSS for 24 hours last night and there was nothing left to polish. I am only an hour and a half drive to the track. I wish I knew I would have run too. My 2011 SHO has run a 13.00 so right around your time. A 12.9 is not bad for a low traction track. I will run MT Drag Radials at the track though.

 

Yes, I'm in the process of getting some drag radials...just deciding on sizing etc...lots of info out there..

 

I was launching at 3000rpm with just a small amount of spin. I was trying to shift around 7300 but need some work perfecting that..on my best run I still bounced of the rev limiter in third.

 

You'll need a 28" tall drag radial to keep you from having to shift into 5th at the dragstrip with your 3.73 gears. M&H Racemasters are very sticky; I run 275/50/17's on my '11 5.0L GT and they hook up perfectly with just a light burnout in the box before staging.
