Awesome work guys. I actually found myself talking about SHOs to people questioning me about my Explorer and I could tell none of them believed a word I said when I told them the times you guys are running. Haters gonna hate, ainters gonna aint.
Anyway I posted my slip in another thread but I'll post it in this official one as well

Yeah, I had the same issue till all they saw was big girl taillights.

Even the tech guys gave me the raised "you are full of ****" eyebrow when they asked what I expected to run.
 
Went to National Trails Yesterday with my New SHO Buddy "pejohnson". His 2013, Mine 2011
We were able to line up Side by Side for four Runs (first 3 were 30 Min apart, last one Painfully
slow).. So he wooped my butt (pretty Close) for the first three, and i treed him on the last.
Here are the results... ;D


Hey PE, wish i was not so blind (i would have left the results off, good time on a Sunday),
Many thanks "again", and i will take you up on the beverages.....

Also I think the Right lane was a TAD better, how about you...?
(i am looking for any excuse to explain you wooping up on me) HA HA
 
Went to San Antonio raceway last night time slips attached, DA was around 1872 according to drag times...

Extensively Modified Supercharged and Turbocharged Engines
                12.896 @ 107.201 MPH


I actually ran 12.9909 at 106.43...! awesome

Car had almost 3/4 tank of gas and the spare and everything still in it... I will shed some of that weight next time I go out there if it is not last minute.

'14 non PP, 3bar v8 livernois, thermostat, plugs, PPE Catted DP's, 3rd cat delete stock back. Car has all of the adaptive cruise, collision avoidance, lane keeping, etc on it as well.

Really want meth injection..!
 
Good times, I think you should aim for mid 12's next time.  12.5 or less should be easily achievable with your setup.
 
12.5 seems a little ambitious for all those extras and non PP? Are most cars now running low 12's running methanol injection and that is normally good for a .5 bump in the 1/4? I would think after loosing the spare and going with little less fuel would only get me in the 12.7 range and that would be as expected?
 
12.5's should be there all day. With those mods the 60' should be 1.8 flat or better, almost a tenth right there. Maybe lower tire pressure more.

You are right, on all counts, that would be the median expectation.  But with good fuel, minimized weight, 28 psi tire pressures etc as outlined by Steve in his post, you should be able to get pretty close in a '14  SHO.  Tunes negate the PP advantage.
 
From today at Beech Bend Bowling Green KY. 50 degrees, announcer was commenting on stiff 20/25 MPH headwind all day. A lot of people were thinking it may have been costing us close to a tenth. A lot of fast times though, my best were 12.580 and 12.582 on the other lane. There was a 13 Coyote there ran a 10.9 with just bolt ons, tune and E85 and a 13 5.0 ran a 12.4 with just bolt ons and a tune.

 
How far before the finish line is your car shifting into 4th? It is very close for my car, not sure if you wre in manual if you could ring out to the finish or maybe shift sooner or something?

I couldn't really tell or at least didn't notice when the car was shifting into 4th. I have to leave the gear selector in "D" or get way to much spin off of line. I still get a lot of spin off the line without putting the car in "S" but not as much as sport mode. I am turning advance track off though.

I have tried and tried but cannot get times anywhere close just leaving the car in "D".
 
Beat my fastest time tonight! 12.62 @ 110mph. Fully loaded with 3/4 tank of gas and about 100lbs of added weight of my stereo system, too lazy to take it all out. I retrospect I should have she would have gone deep into the 12.5s without all the added weight. Hell who am I kidding she went 12.6!!
