12.914 @ 103.09
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni4zE6449vQ&feature=player_embedded
Got the 2.55 pulley on now, built about 13 PSI tonight (hit 14 at the top of the shift) and put a better E85 tune on it, leaned it out a tad and put in a few extra degrees of timing. Car finally pulled the numbers I wanted. And for the record, this is the first Grand Prix (let alone a GT) to go 12's at Bandimere without nitrous.

Pepsi lane is obviously far better than the stupid Mopar lane.
Very nice, dude. I like the 60ft. time. |

Haha yeah, I can't stand racing in the left lane for some reason...something about the "slow" lane that does it for me
But yes, that 60' was neck snapping haha. Felt like a rocketship out of the hole.
P.S. - Corvette C6 LS2 in the left lane (just to show you how slow N/A cars run up here) Guy was cool as hell. _________________ 1998 Grand Prix GT | 12.91 @ 103 - Sold/Retired

Thanks man! Yeah, next thing to do is nitrous and see if I can't crack 11's out of this thing...if it goes 11's on nitrous it will be just me and one other GTP to do it.
Overall for today, I was pretty impressed. Couldn't back up another 12.xxx because the track prep was awful...I was spinning my slicks w/ 15psi in them  _________________ 1998 Grand Prix GT | 12.91 @ 103 - Sold/Retired

12.0ish @ 111. I think I could crack an 11 out of her though (We will see in a week when I go to California)
Thanks everyone! Surprised how well the video came out!
