I finally got my Drag Week motor put together and in. Got some TNT runs in last night. Nothing earth-shattering, but nothing came apart either! 1.56, 7.22 @ 94.14 through the exhaust at about 1500 DA....should run right at 7 flat with no exhaust....maybe a little better with some tuning.Drag Week 2014 SR/BB/NA 11.12 @ 118.56 average
Drag Week 2015 SR/BB/NA 10.84 @ 124.97 average

Even with the wrong tires, no tune, minimal suspension work, stock 3.31 gears (not the optional low ratio), heavy stock 8x18" wheels, wrong transmission (Chinese 6-speed manual), a stock air box/OEM filter, and a bumbling, antique driver, my Coyote has run in the twelves (race weight: 3,707#).
If I put some drag struts on it, front runners, and got some real slicks, it ought to dip into the elevens.
The NMRA Coyote Stock guys are running a couple of seconds quicker (albeit at about 500# lighter weight).

My '12 is a no-option Equipment Package 300A, and with me in it (~ 220 lbs) and about a gallon and a half of gas in the tank, it scaled on DW '13 at Bowling Green at 3,707 lbs. The unoccupied dry weight would have to be closer to 3,500, IMO.Drag week 2009 Quickest street rod
