So this can be a thread to post your fastest cars and their ET's. Please be sure to put if it is a street car or a race car. I thought of this while I was trying to figure out tiresmoker's fastest pass (with or without NOS). I'll start making a list in this post after we get a few. I'm pretty sure that Jacin will take top honors with the digger for a race car, but the street car thing is up in the air.

My Chevelle went 12.38 @ 110 with my old 406. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyA0pN6bJzg

I also have a 12.30 @ 101 time slip (on the brakes)

12.99 @ 105.5 MPH......All Street, All Green, All the Time.

Dave, didn't you have an 11sec NOS pass? Can't remember...

-BP

My 76 Trans Am best ET is 12.630 at 106.56 MPH.
The best 60' time is 1.71

FWIW it went that fast before any of the cars currently on the list.

Nope, never went 11s. Waaaay back when we were all in the 14s or high 13s, I went 12.67 @ 111 on NOS. No later than 1996, probably. I think my car was in the 13.70s at the time.

I was nipping at your heels.. maybe 12.80s @ 105 around that time.

There is something to be said for that....in the days before people like me could buy a set of killer aftermarket aluminum cylinder heads and roller valve train goodies.

I think I still fit into my 32x32 jeans back in 1996.....but their days were numbered. I was also driving a Ford Probe GT at the time....which felt like a Ferrari after the '81 Cutlass and '82 Regal I drove in College.

But I was attending a LOT of Indians' while I worked downtown for my first CPA firm....but I was not it's President.

I put up another list consisting of the times of our fastest cars that we currently have, and what they're running in their current configurations. I hope to make a big improvement on both lists shortly.

I am going to have to dig because I can't recall what the GN ran.

I'm pretty sure you were in the 13's, but I'm not sure by how much.
