Default Ran a 12

I took my car to the track yesterday. My first run was a 13.0 with a 1.8 sixty foot. I thought "Hmm, I can do better than that on the launch." The next run, I slipped the clutch out a bit more aggressively and got a 1.7 sixty foot, 12.927 @ 103.74. At that point I was happy with what I had run, and just stopped running for the day. I'm certain I could have been even more aggressive on the launch and pulled a 1.6 and maybe a 12.8 or 12.7, but I don't really care. I reached my first goal for this car, 12.x run on stock turbo, stock sidemount, pump gas. Now I get to upgrade my turbo and go after an 11.9, because my turbo's seals are so shot that I lost a half quart of oil on those two passes .
