    Nice run. I'm surprised that they let you run with the stuff hanging off of your mirror though.

    It's honestly about three inches long, the tech guy was pretty cool about everything mind you we checked the car thoroughly before heading to the track for anything it could possibly fail. Besides that's my cross I would never race without it.

    I would have thought you guys could see my tongue chewing action more than anything lol !.

    this is nowhere near the boost this car will be running at the track over the next few years, I am 100% positive this build will be pretty out there !

    12.62@109 mph @19 psi

    the 12.62 is just touching the actual potential of this build.

    That was 19 psi pump gas tune and running well rich with a little 110 mixed it just to be safe until we really get a chance to tune it this spring. (I believe I had base timing back at 8 deg as well IMS)

    Nice to see how calm things look inside the car Nick! I told you I didn't want you to think you had to Push things to run into the 12's, just drive smoothly and the build will do the rest.

    Glad to see it was just a Sunday cruise!

    I can honestly say I am very happy to have a great mentor by my side, without the pep talks and inside knowledge on how to drive these cars that 12 second run wouldn't have happened especially within only 4 runs and a 35k/m head wind.

    Having the knowledge and experience of having done something is the Easy part. Passing it on to others is difficult.

    Most either can't get beyond the "bad habits" of the past, or the ideology that they know a Better way of doing things, so they can Never Fully Embrace what you are trying to show/ teach them.

    You did what very few can do. You took all of my critique, which would Offend most and then you did something More.............You Believed it was possible! (This was the Most important part!)

    So don't sell yourself and Your part in all of this Short. In the end, You pulled it off, I was just happy to be there and help in any way I could

    LOVE this thread!!!

    It's SO eerily similar to my build.
    Seeing it come to fruition is really great,
    and lights a fire inside to afford my build the time I should be!

    Thanks for the inspiration, and keep up the great work guys.

    Unlearning what you have "learned" from "experts" is difficult for some people.

    Decided I didnt want to hack up my dash for a double din stereo, so made a bracket to hold up my blackbarry playbook. I'll keep working on the bracket and ways to route the wires. I'll post updates as I make more progress
