As you've seen from Jack, he gets 1.3 on a 9 sec run. Twin turbo is 1.7 on a 10 sec run. I get 1.7 on a mid-10 sec run as well, with a set up for road courses and running on Nitto NT01 tires, which are not a wrinkle wall drag tire. I'd be interested in your street car times since you seem to be providing advice to folks who are actally running pretty quick for street cars.

I ran 11.8's @ 121 with 1.9 60' times. A 427 @ 550HP with 3.31 Jag. . That on Street TD's (terrible) and BB's (better but no bottom bite). It took me near 9 seconds to go 660 and 3 to go the last 1/8 mile finally hooked.
My 1.2 quote came from racing with a guy that had a Yates SBF CSX. He ran effortless 10.7's on Nitto DR's. He left off idle and ran consistent 1.5-1.6's. The motor made 715 from Yates' dyno at 12:1 compression.
I tried to give OP a little incentive to use (and enjoy) all that power he paid for but he just wants vid game bragging rights.
Jack I believe did that on a live axle but I still marvel at 9's in a Cobra.
