Thanks guys! Like I said, you might get me on the launch but I'm going to hunt you down!!  I was actually gaining on the modded lightning! If you look at the 1/8 mile times I was already at a higher trap speed...problem was he was already long past the 1/8th  The guy with the lightning came with a stock 03 lightning and that truck only turned a 14.0 flat on street tires, so figure that.  Yeah, I didn't know much about JDM, but I could see the friggin results! That truck was intimidating everyone. The guy said he was waiting on an even smaller pulley for his S/C too.

Congrats Tom, thats amazing when you take into consideration your 60ft times  For comparison sakes my modded 87 GN ran a best of 12.68 @ 109 mph and that was w/ a 1.91 60 ft time and yes, I too had stock internals as well, but mine had about 110K on them  Looking at that trapspeed, 12's should be a breeze, don't you think  Also are you running the Zetec final drive of 3.71 or the CSVT's of 4.06  Once again, congrats!

those are great times indeed and the whole JDM thing confused me. It made me laugh at first, but now that I know what it is, it still makes me laugh. It would just be funny to see Fords driving around with JDM stickers....

dual stage and some slicks and you should be where you want to be. If you look at the numbers he's pulling up until the 1/8th mile mark after that you guys both took about 4 seconds to get through the 1/4. Awesome trap speed that would be one heck of a road race car.

109 eh? I'd better start working on that new motor.  It's finally getting back down to the 80's at night time so my track days are about to start again. Congrats Tom! and you suck at the same time.
