I was able to make it out to Fontana on their last drag event of the year, ran twice and got into the 12's on both runs. They are as follows....

Dec. 5th, 2009 11:46am

R/T.................218
60'...............1.819
330'..............5.282
1/8...............8.217
MPH.............83.79
1000'............10.748
1/4...............12.882
MPH..............105.32

2:45pm

R/T..................183
60'..................1.827
330'.................5.292
1/8..................8.233
MPH................83.61
1000................10.770
1/4..................12.906
MPH.................106.97

Fontana is said to be not that good of a track and even goes uphill after the 1/8th. I'm pleased with my results considering the few mods I have. There were many new SS Camaros out and they all ran right around 14.0 Hung out with some TBSS guys as well and even ran one. My 12.9 to his 13.9 12 second club officially!

Thank you! Yea, the TBSS guys were really cool. There was one that ran a 13.7 at 100, I believe. He did have double my mods and what was kinda funny, I thought, is that they all had their backseats out, headlight off and I just showed up and ran. 2 1/2 years and I still love my beast!

Way to go Lyle. Did you see my THREAD on IRWINDALE VS FONTANA DRAG STRIP IN THIS SECTION?
Those SSTB guys were at IRWINDALE when we were there with them and yes there all were cool guys. I ask them where were the AWD SSTB and they said on the east coast lol.

I did see them! They ran together every race that I saw them in. What did that ISF run? I thought he was right at 12.8's also. That GTR was in the 11's.

Yea, wish you made it out. I was the only one reppin' for the SRT Jeep nation there. The weather doesn't get much better than it was that day, for down here. I know you could've put down good numbers too! Jim has all the DA stuff on that day.

I saw that they were having the SRT experience at the track last weekend as well. Almost drove over there to check out the SRTs that rolled up but I had to be at a Christmas party. The only other time I went to Fontana, I ran a 13.2 or something like that. Cool, we have to get together soon.
