did a 15.4 at one point lol, its what happens when you aint used to the diff, your rev counter dont work, your generally shit at 1/4 miles...
Ill make many excuses, but it all comes down to my lack of ability to launch, 1/4 mile is about the 60ft, anything after that is down to power, the car is proven to have the power, i have many graphs to proove it.
was remapped last night, it is running better than ever now, love it! however 1/4 mile style racing really isnt for me!
i like to go round corners better than go in a straight line....

yep
steve, he'll just put more gas through it, if it can break the 11s with its current spec, when its got a new bottom end and a stronger box, itll go quicker
