Just got another pair of Fanblades (that makes 6 now) and a set of 265/40-18 MT ET Streets. Now I hope I can run consistent 12s at will! I will find out Saturday as the NVMC has its last Drag Day of '06 (four hour private rental) at Mason Dixon Dragway near Hagerstown, MD. The car is dirty as it hasn't been washed in nearly a week and I tinted the windows in Photoshop
If you look closely, you can see the J&M LCA relocation bracket hiding under there.

I gave it thirteen tries and the best I could do was 13.022. I had two other runs in the 13.0s. I did record personal bests in 60', 330', 1/8 mile E.T., 1/8 mile MPH and 1/4 mile E.T. so it wasn't a total wash. I managed a best of a 1.901 60'. Not great, but I found out once I dropped the air pressure low enough (15 psi) to stop the tire spin, my car bogged off the line trying to overcome the new found traction. I now know I need a stall converter to help with that. Using the parking brake and the sticky tires I could get the revs up to 2500-2600 RPM before it wanted to start pushing forward. Sometime after the first of the year I plan on doing a cam swap, long tube headers, switching to a 90 mm MAF, Spydershaft and a 3000 RPM or slightly higher stall converter. Those mods hopefully will get my car to the mid to low 12s consistently. I had a blast all day long outside of not making it into the 12s!
