Seeing that 13.6 by a S/Ced S2 makes me not want to post this but I will anyway. I'm sorry if you guys don't buy this but I ran a 13.87 @ 102 (ok 101.3 but 102 sounds better) with just a V-AFC. I was shocked as well when I got that time. I have different rims and tires too but I really doubt that helped much. My average is 14.0-14.2 @ around 98. I've never even dipped into the 13's again after that. BTW I dynoed at 208 rwhp if thats any help.

Don't sweat it, that SC'd car runs in the 13.3's pretty consistently if an aggressive launch is used. Also, in that video, it had 18" wheels on it w/ 265/35's (which slightly raises the gearing, not advantageous for launching) and a trunk full of stuff (got to the track late )

The vid is especially funny to me and Jim (Mr. ProFlow Design) because I passed him a little after the 1000' mark driving with my knee in order to fly him the double bird (got a double take out of him ) LOL
Also quite funny is the fact you can hear how enthused his wife is at the end of the race .... "all right then...."

Yeah, turns out it was an accident the S2000 was even on the tape to begin with. Jim's wife was taping him and didn't even realize that we got paired up till well after the fact.
