My fastest was 12.4 but my MPH traps were 120-122mph. I couldnt hook for shit with my cheap street tires.

Great meeting you guys!
My best run was 12.15 at 115.5.
I just couldn't break out of the 12.1s.

I ran 12.18, 12.18 and then the 12.15.
I'm pretty happy with the 12.3 on street tires though.

I want to THANK EVERYONE who participated in this event, as it was most definitely worth the effort and wait. Thanks for driving all the way to Famoso with your awesome machines and joining us in this wonderful event

As usual, some cars did good and some did bad. I'll try to summarize....

- As posted earlier, Sal ran a few 11.0x @ 126, then a couple of 10.9x @ 127 to 128 mph Sal, your car was absolutely phenomenal my friend

- Chris's Challenger couldn't break 10.30s due to to belt kept popping out but he his runs were spectacular as always

- We had two Mustangs that were running in the 9s throughout the day :naughty:

- Ryan's C6 Z06 (headers/Cams/Tune) ran 10.4x @ 135.x mph

- Bolt-ons C6 Corvette ran 11.6x @ 12x mph..... Joel, it was a pleasure meeting you

- Steve's Jeep ran consistently in the mid 11s (naturally aspirated) and shocked a few cars

- Tony's S4 was very impressive going from 13.4 to 11.9x by just improving the launch and technique

- The Bently ran 12.8x @ 118 and I think it may have hit 12.7x as well

- The Porsche Carrera GT was finally able to dip into the 11.9s after a few 18 second runs

- There was a turbo truck that ran 10.90s @ 130 mph :naughty:

- My car was not able to better the 12.4x @ 114.7 today no matter how many times we tried launching it

- The two CLSs were absolutely amazing down the track.....

- The 135 and 335 machines were absolutely amazing..... and have humbled a few AMGs at Famoso

- The bolts-on M3, specifically Drew's, was truly poetic at the track, he was able to drop his times down to 12.0 and had traction been a little better, I have no doubt, his car would've hit 11s

- The three C63s were epic at the track: Mac, Phil, and Josh. All three kept improving and improving throughout the day with fantastic times although it was the first time to the drag strip with the C63 for all three of them

- Last but not least, I want to thank Pyrun for all his efforts documenting this drag day and driving all the way out to Famoso to hang with us
