Default Ran the 1/4 mile!
Well I ran the 1/4 with the 99. I only got 2 runs in which sucked. Over 500 cars there. Ran a 12.3 at 115. Not the greatest. My 60 ft. sucked spun all of first gear. The traction was bad. I didnt even get a chance to play with the suspension cuz it needs adjustment. I have one video but my friend got me after i launched so sorry about that. Hell i was upset cuz i couldnt see the launch. But i will be going to a diff track 1/8th mile to test her out some more. Then once i get her nice an good ill go back to the 1/4 mile.

im # 9594

Lol other guy ran a 12.1 @ 101 , you got 12.3 at 115.

Either way, that's awesome! Are you going to run the '03 at all?

No wont be running the 03. Plus i saw some guys running ported eaton cobra and they were loew 12s lol. One guy had slicks with the stock wheels up front an he ran 12.1 so no need to run the 03 at the track lol. My 99 does the same times. Ill keep the 03 for the street. Yea that guy had me and then at the end I came in front but i had a red light on that run and it was weird are started to roll back and the bottom yellow lights came off so i had to move forward a lil and it went alil to forward so i let off the clutch too soon. Owell. The line lock works awesome tho in the burn out box.

Alright, that came off a bit weird ^ lol

I think if you had traction from the start you'd already be around a low 12.0-11.98. Best of luck with the rest of it, that's one badass Cobra.
