Nice job KEN. That is pretty amazing that you are picking up over a full second with the slicks. I think I will try running slicks also so I can run in the 12s too.
Your car is there... Just need to get the right run. My guess is you cut 1.7-1.8 60s. Desoto and the 28th (with a little cool weather) will be the day. 107mph is cool!!!

As for a full second with slicks..on the street tire pass I was in 3rd gear shortly after 60 I grannied 1 and 2 on purpose and let the torque in 3rd pull me.. I think a 13.5 is possible. but at 2600 lbs and FWD.. tough as hell to get.
