I was just reading through some archived threads and found a timeslip from Her86GT's turbo 4.9. The time differs from the one listed at the beginning of this thread (not sure where it's from), but at least this time can be marked "verified":
12.51 @ 107.87

Got it. By the way, she's listed twice, once for a 4.9 and once for a Northstar. Are they two separate cars, or an evolution of the same car?

An evolution. It went from the 4.9 turbo, to the northstar, and I think it even went to a 3800sc, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

New PB
RT... .131
60'... 1.862
330... 5.251
1/8... 8.090
MPH... 86.30
1000... 10.576
1/4... 12.694
MPH... 106.24
Other runs last night:
2)12.695@105.81 (What does a thousandths of a second say about consistancy?)
3)12.735@106.93 (Oh, so close to 107!)
4)12.813@105.97
Overall, I had fun beating a VERY nice LS1 corvette by .1-.2 tenth's of a second. 
PS- I'll post scan's by this weekend.
I need to update my sig.

I am debating darkhorizons 12.26. For a couple of reasons. First off the "pic" of his timeslip on page 2 is actually an image icon from the forum. 2nd, his numbers dont add up. Look at the 1/4 mile list, most of the guys running 12.20's are running 110+ mph. Also when I was running these times I was doing so with 1.66 or so 60's. He ran a 1.85 on that pass. This puts him .2 behind me automatically. To make up .2 he would have to be trapping 112 or so on that pass. I call bs. I saw the video, and timed it 5 times with a stopwatch. Each time was between 12.65 and 12.90.
I want to see a copy of the actual timeslip so I can break the numbers down. Dark, did you back up the pass or was that your only pass of the day? Is that the only pass you have ever made? If no what are the times of some of your other runs?
Have a great night!
:P

There where several people at the track when he ran that 12.2 so it is legit. It was during the 25th track day so several other members where there to see it. I myself showed up after wards so I can't say that I saw it but several others did.
I have wondered how he ran a 12.2 with little mods but I figured he was spraying more than what was said. Either way he ran the 12.2 one time so it is legit.

I saw the video, the point im making isnt the fact that he was there and everyone saw it, I am debating the accuracy of the tracks timer. Ive been to the track enough in my life to see some crazy stuff happen with the timing systems. I have seen 14 second cars show 185 mph on the scoreboards. I have seen 15 second cars show 9 second times with 6 second reaction times, because the timer delayed in starting for some reason. Stuff like that happens. I want to see the actual timeslip.
Look at the video for yourself and use a stopwatch. Youll see what im talking about.

I took the video. There is certainly no camera trickery there....the only way that time would not be accurate is if the timing at Milan Dragway was innacurate. It was his second pass of the night. First pass he pulled high 12s after shutting it down just past the launch when the other car blew the engine (I have that video too, but have to wait till I get home to get it). I can't comment on whether he is BSing about the amount of juice.....I never verified that.
I just wanted to make sure I understand what you are saying here. A member posts a photo of a timeslip that shows all his numbers, plus a video that matches that timeslip perfectly, and you are still questioning it?
Edit....I appologize for my harshness there. I now see what you mean by "is actually an image icon from the forum". He originally posted the actual timeslip here: http://www.fiero.nl/forum/F...1/HTML/069402-3.html
