closer to 100mph is typical for our cars at that track (decently modded NA Gs)... Mark apparently was having some difficulty that day.

So it's likely you are the fastest FI... comparing to other tracks isnt indicative of each car's ability.

My most recent best time was an 11.7 @ 129.9mph at speedworld just north of Phoenix. That was almost two years ago. I have no idea where the slip went, it isn't in my folder with the other ones. I was on my 20's with street tires and full stereo with 1/8th tank of Q16 race gas. I short shifted 1st and spun through 2nd and 3rd.

There was a TT C6 vette there running low 10s with a trap speed in the 124's.

My car is not made for drag and my abilities are poor at best...
