Wow!  112 MPH.  That's big horse power from a turbo 4.  Nice job. 

It a bit cruise from Oak Harbor to Milan.

yeah, but a bunch of guys from toledo I hang out with were up there.  I was only .25 second off a gt500 mustang.

I'm more happy that i got that time and still managed to drive it back home, lol.  Truthfully its about the same distance to go to milan as it is to go to dragway42, timewise at least.  Now I just gotta get my truck back to the track and see what happens when I give it the 200 and 250 shots of n2o, lol.

Aw come on thats only 10 mph faster than my FESTIVA went. pfffft

Why not norwalk? Way closer than 42, and apparently its only $12 to T&T.

if you want 2 runs go to norwalk.  If you want 10 go to 42!  At least mine went 1.4 seconds faster than that hamster mobile with wrong wheel drive

You got a lil more than $1500 in yours you have to admit!

It'll be back, 12's or bust. Its already 13.3-worthy if it had traction.

Theres at least 7 out there running 12's.

Bet I wont. Those are usually the last things to break.

Remember, Im running parts that were made for a car 1.5x bigger. Can you say "overbuilt"?

Well in my case it was Mazda's lame cast pistons...still my fault though.
