Ron,

Also don't forget BobGs 427 w a 10.88 @ 131. Mark and Dean w 120 traps on stock block, stock cammed motors. I ran a 12.4@118+ for my first time taking a car back down this track since losing my blue car. I was on street tires and kept the ASR on . Pete and I found a few days later that my throttle may not have been opening completely.
All in all, pretty stellar performance from very streetable cars getting 20+ mpg and idling at a fairly docile 900rpm.
Way to get back on that horse Dom!
