i think it will eventually happen. maybe someones lightweight road race car would do it?

cracking VVEL will probably never actually happen, and even if it does, everyone holding their breath thinking they are going to make gobs of power tweaking it are in for a serious let down.

I think it is possible. The right driver, 60fter,mods,tires,reduced weight? Those are just the start of what you will need. Add in location, weather and all the factors that come in with that yes anything is possible. Has anybody done it yet nope. What was Jnaut's 60fter? Weather? Weight of vehicle with him in it? Mods and Tires? I am doing full bolt on's and I have some dr's waiting for me when I return. I'll do my best.

Do not think so.
im getting the converter reworked this winter so i can launch at 3500 vs 1900 rpm / The GTM converter gave me and improvment of .42 of a second after he modified it and i think that there is more left to gain.
it may put me into the low 12.3's. The problem with the auto is the 4th to 5 th shift it take .61 of a second.
Sam is working on the VB and hopefully i should have it by next spring. If it can cut the shift time to .41 . 12.12 would be the best that i could expect.
the car ran perfectly on the 12.42 run. it pulled its brains out. Puting the motordyne art pipes might help. too.

Never say never Z eliminator anything is possible. I am still waiting for updates on that plenum spacer and I believe someone is in the works for a new manifold. Only the future will tell.

You didn't have ART pipes on it before when you ran? Did you have standard TP's or HFC's?

The quickist turbo car is running 11.7's. the trap seeds are increadable.
The stillen SC is also in the 11.7s (if im wrong some body tell me.
You need lots of rwhp and perfect weather and track conditions.
J nauts car and mine are done to the 9's.
i will be going to the track in a few weeks and we will see what it runs.
Im also waiting for the spacer results and i may put the factory intake manifold back on.
I think that it may pull stronger on the top end.

IIRC he pulled as low as 1.80 on his 12.24 pass. And he did that w/ a busted rear diff mount too.

The best I've pulled is 1.86 w/ the stock potenzas. But soon I'll have a set of RE-11's, just in time for winter.

I would have to agree. There isn't too much more he can do to his car to make it faster. Maybe one or two more modifications but not enough to run 11.9xx IMO.

Do you still have them? If so, I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you go with the ART pipes. They are just so cool. Mine settled down a lot in just a little over 300 miles. It sounds like the exhaust is modified if you get on it, but cruising and at idle... you hear nothing.
