What have you run so far?

Wow! Great run with that 60'. I hope I can do as well. But I'm a few weeks away from that.

yep but it is my supercharged Civic and my Type R that I'm prepping for the autoX

My local 1/8 mile ain't worth the bother, I get a better launch down the back road.. I did the last import vs Mustang shoot out with the OldLady's Volvo R and went into the semifinals.... I kinda forgot to tell her about it.

I'm looking for a set of 18x10 uni-lug so I can run them on the Challenger and the Camaro.

I got a chance to play with my Camaro, my bud drove the Challenger. V6 supercharged 1 point N20 (I have a two stage also). The Challenger is more consistent (A5, stall 3.9 gears, on P Zero summer). I was kind of surprised how well the SS M6 gears spacing and LT1 torque worked. Just don't blow the tires away and the SS basically races itself.

So pending the uni-lug I won't bother with the local 1/8 where the Oldlady's 4WD station wagon is actually the better weapon. Cause we all know the 1/8 mile is a launch contest.

Now the SS on the autoX, seems tempting but I only have so much time and money. I think the SS is going to be an OK bracket racer (auto would have been better). The local rules only allow for one power added for V6 / I4 and that puts the Challenger at a huge disadvantage sans a massive investment.

I love to see a V6 2016 Camaro with poweradder.

My bro drove in from west Texas he finally gave up on his R/T and SRT8 and has a low mile Boxer, he is heading to get a 460 HP turbo intercooler kit not bad for sub 3000 lbs, with powertrain warranty all in 20K plus car... I'm sure he will want a throw down when he brings it by on the way back home. I should take that to the next import vs Mustang night.... LOL

true that, same goes for the AutoX, I test drove the V6 A8 and I was quite impressed. I purchased the SS M6 without a test driven ( I did drive a A8 SS). The chassis is so well setup.

Just saw, better DA or more practice will get you 12.30's easily as you were soooooo close with that 12.401.

I work every other weekend, and we are running out of decent weather in Texas. I'm sure I'll get back to the track, just worried about catching some good air to run in.

With a little more practice he will get that into the low 1.9x's. Then he will be solidly in the 12.30's. Possibly even better...
