WHat are the estimates on my ETs?

What do you think I will run during my next trip to the dragstrip?

Note: I will be running open headers with skinnies in the front and my MT slicks

Is it a new combo? How is it running? Shouldn't be to hard to get in the lower 12s pretty quick.

I have never had it to the track with the slicks, LTs, LCAs, weaker springs, skinnies or open header

Well I'm running in the 12.7's with a full weight GTA, smaller cam etc. so you should be faster. I would say at least 12.5's depending on your track and atmospheric conditions.
