Best run thus far... [12.08 @ 114.24]

Here is my timeslip from last season (2008). Would have made it into the 11s this year if my meth and valve spring were functioning. O'well, there is always next year.

I remember when I only ran 12s Just jokes. I'm excited for next season. I'm looking forward to seeing what the RS can do.

I was so hoping you'd hit those 11's this year bro! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you for next year!!

sweet

Really hoping to hit 11s this year. I dont even care if they are high 11s, I just want to break out of the 12s!

You'll get it man, keep patient . Funny thing is, once you crack that barrier, you will probably find yourself consistantly in the 11s and targetting another barrier. That has been how all of the barriers have been for me, it is like something just clicks and then it is no big deal.

I never had trouble getting into the 13s, all the cars I've taken to the strip have done 13s right away. 12s was a beotch, I have several 13.00x slips from my STI. I had to wait until my supercharged GTO to see 12s, and even then I had a couple 13.0x scares, it literally felt like a wall. 11s in my Buick were the same, I was all over the board in the 12s with a ton of mph, but just couldn't get a launch. Then I got an 11.8x once and never looked back, now something has to go wrong to net a 12. The bike was the same, lot of 11s before I learned how to get a 10, now they come naturally (and I really want a 9 now, another wall...)

I think that it is the same for everyone, Rob had a big 9.0 barrier at the pinks event then cracked off that 8.8. He hasn't gotten the nack for 8s yet, but I bet he does this year and since he has cracked the 8s, it isn't really a barrier anymore.

It is weird like that.

I hope that I'm there the day you break into the 11s, I'd like to get it on video and cheer you on .

Thanks Tom, I could use as much crowd support as possible.

Now that I have the 2-step and 1000cc injectors I dont see any reason why 11s shouldnt be possible.
