[QUOTE="The Bird, post: 40532, member: 2097"] Well said, and I agree. That is why I do not post my times. I have excuses on the runs I have, because the car was real inconsistent. I ran a 13.20 at 108 missing second gear in the 1/8 and it put me a full second slower in the 1/8mile average. I had a 9.5 1/8 mile and I used to turn ( before the cam and headers) a 8.5-8.6 consisgtent. Had I run on the money like I know the car could have that day, it would have been a 12 easy before I gained my other 50 rw with my cam and headers. I would guess I could run a high 11 now (11.9s) in the teens (117sih) mph. But yea, I totally agree, that it is a run what you brung and we can all guess at what we should have run. :) I totally agree with you. It is funny seing a stock GT (not knocking them here) want to run me in my fairly modded Bird. I guess I still look like a slow car with the V6 body but V8 guts. hehehehe. And again, some just want to see what you can do. I try to not run my car hard much anymore as it is getting real expensive to fix. Hey, there is always someone faster.
