12.46

About 14k. There are people that run this with less money, but I think that I do it very reliably, and with a better smarty tune, I could probably be in the 12.3x's...

$700 Smarty
$499 AirDog 150

3k for 13.9 on an auto sounds sweet.

14 seconds would make me very happy. I think what cincy has going is an affordable set up. I would rather go no muffler and a smarty and trans mods. I guess at some point you are going to run into fuel issues so an upgrade may be in order. I would have to remover alot of those heavy tools in my tool box to get her movin.

My guess would be one of those smoke switches I have read about. Maybe a 007 type oil slick button but that seems dangerous.
