LMAO yes. First run I tried to launch a little aggressively and spun 1st and 2nd, then gave up. Second run spun most of 1st, ended up 12.2 something at 126. 3rd run tried to roll on easy in 1st, the 60' still sucked, 2.4 But picked up on the big end. 11.9 at 127. I think the car could run 10's if I could get it to hook.

I'm not quite used to the clutch on this car either, it's way different than the one in my Z28 daily driver.

Getting traction in this car is hard, even on 345 wide Envo's. Need slicks for the drag strip. I've had it spin on me in 4th gear around 4000 RPM at 125 MPH on the street before
