Fastest pass was 12.3 with .8564 sitting on the line. I had snow tires on too running on a 9lb tune. I can safely take it to 14 lbs without blowing anything apart.

...Why the hell would you take a car to the strip with SNOW TIRES on it? Presumably, running low 12s in the 1/4, you were well above 100 MPH, yes? Are your winter tires rated for that speed? And what kind of cut rate safety crew at a drag strip would let you run a 12 second car with winter tires on it...??

LOL! I live in Wyoming man :D Shits different around here. And it was a spur of the moment detour, happened to be driving through the town with my girlfriend coming back from surgery. Its 25$ to do the drags all night. I just had my winters switched on and just figured "why not". I run Hankook Icebears and they are rated at 150mph~. It was also the first time I took the car to the strip. I made the first pass at 13.37 and was told by the crew that if I passed under 14 again I would have to kick my passenger out and get a helmet. Anything under 11 would require a roll cage. I think the 12.3 was 112.8mph.

You didn't run 12.3 @ only 112mph with a 6 speed and snow tires... you would need to trap more like 118 for that ET given the shittasctic 60ft from snow tires on a cold track.

112 on even a 2.0 60ft is 12.7ish.

I was thinking higher than 118 even given the conditions lol.

That is being generous. If he is an average driver and he 60'd 2.2 it would be 120 or higher.


Not to mention he claims 750hp in the vid description. At his claimed 9psi it would have to be an LS2 GTO to make that power. At that power level even if it didn't hook until the 1/8th mile it would trap 125 or higher.


An LS1 Fbody with headers and a catback should trap 112-114 at ~325whp...
