Sweet. I only ran a 13.89 @ 106.60. You've got nice traction there.

Good job on getting a 12 second slip. I remember the relief I felt when I finally got mine this year.

NICELY DONE!!! can't wait till i have a 12 second street car. mine is just a warmed over 305 though. running a 13.88@100mph with traction issues was pretty impressive in my book though.
