getting the advertised number is so hard!! 12.8 was my best with a catback and a set of heavy wheels and tires and the tires were all seasons

If you ran in Kentucky, then you were probably at a higher elevation. Sea level is the best elevation for times. I'll be running at 65 feet above sea level. (Bradenton Motorsports)

Here's a post with a video that claims a stock run in the 12.5's:

All that I can say is I'lll see what I can do. My bone stock 2007 350z time that I set back in 2007 was in 5th place on the 350z forums for a long time (I only tracked the car on two different nights while stock, I set that record time on the first night). It's finally been pushed down to like 8th or 9th, but it's been years! I used to drag my Camaros religiously back in the 90's.

When will you be attempting your first run in the RCF? I will be interested in your results!
Good luck Dave.

Thanks man. The way it's looking with this contract I may not get a chance to get back home to do it until around the new year. The good news is that the humidity and temperature should be great for runs at that time. I'll have to wait and see...

Having to wait for that also means I'll have to wait for my FI too. I hate waiting, but I have to work first and foremost.

Hey LRCSALES, just found out about Weapon X a couple weeks ago...I actually work about half mile from their shop. Very nice setup you got there....
You gotta take the car to Edgewater one Friday night...I did my first 1/4 in my ISF about 3 weeks ago (12.9 on all seasons) and loved taking down American muscle!
