The car feels great, it is a fast (but low-drama) setup that behaved well off the line, even on street tires. Only when I was a clown did the car say LOLOLOLOLOLOL-NO
Your MPH reflects the power you are making. It will generally be higher if you loose traction on launch, compared to a run when you hook.
I ran a 12.3's at 111mph (if memory serves) with my 181, but my MPH was inhibited by running lean. Once I corrected the issue I ran a 12.3 at 116. Obviously both days I was running street tires.
Once you up the boost you'll likely smoke the tires (2.0-2.1 60') and run another 12.3, but the MPH will be much higher (114-117) due to the higher power and spinning. If at that point you install DR's/Slicks, your ET will be lowered by 2-3 tenths, which will in turn lower your ET by the same and result in high 11's. This is based on my experience with racing and the Crossfire in particular.
Do you still have the SRT seats?
