Well, like I was saying, 12's is lightning fast compared to what I'm used to, my old 3.8 Camaro. Back in high school if you had a car in the low 14's you were competitive. If you could get it in the 13's you were pretty much king. 12's was like the holy grail for most of us back then. And I know what you mean by taking it easy on the rear end. When I get my 295's tires on the back I am not going to be dumping the clutch at all.
