Yes, but I was barely in the 12's, hope to be more solidly in the 12's this time.

I don't remove much, want the runs to be comparable to my daily driver setup, 91 octane plus meth with 2 car seats in the back.

Hopefully the light wheels/tires will make a noticeable difference this time.

Maybe you're looking at Sunday?

NWS Sat 52, 20% rain after noon
TWC Sat 55, 10% rain

Looks like ideal conditions.

Just filled up with a couple gallons of 100 octane. With my current 4 gallons of 91, that puts me at 94 octane. Since I'm bone stock it probably has zero benefit, but it just seemed like the right thing to do going to Bandimere

The car will run amazingly smoother and I bet you get 3hp or so. I used to do that just for the smoothness for one tank.

I will. I doubt high numbers because it will still be pump gas. Maybe when I change over to E85 we will see 700+.

At 700+, that car is probably not even drivable. Not drivable as in the power is too much for that little car. You can't use all 700hp of it. It's a Dyno queen

Says who?

My car is still driveable all the time :P Just have to daily it on slicks. But I don't know what I'm at this year, I hope it's over 600

We'll see tomorrow a rough idea from my traps
