I can't run a 12.2. But, since were going from a 50 mph roll, I'm not worried about my 60' or ET. I've walked away from more than one high 11 second car on the highway before.

I dunno Ron. In my opinion, I'm not going to "spank" that car anywhere.

Oh I have, and that's why there hasn't been any bragging by me in this thread or anywhere else. I'm well aware of what his car can do. I've read about all of Julio's old threads from the other forum and it seems that trap speed is a much better indicator of the outcome of this type of contest than ET. If that's true, than we should be close. If not than my 19 yo Z gets beat by a 3 yo $95,000.00 Benze. That's ok too. Ron thanks for the input, I appreciate it.
