1/4 Mile Experience
Just wondering what the fastest you've even been down the 1/4 mile track? Whether it be as a driver or a passenger and it doesn't have to be your car. I'm trying to remember myself but it'* been so long and I've driven so many cars.
On a different note, what'* the quickest car you've ever put the pedal to the metal on?

My Grand Am GT did a 14.9 in the quarter, I haven't shot my Bonne down the 1320' yet. The fastest car was my buddies '97 Cobra that he stroked to 5.0 liters with nitrous he would do the 1/8th in 7.9 @ 97mph. 0-60 in 4.3 seconds (datalogged), no traction through first or halfway through second

13.185 at 104mph in the Bonne. That was before adding the IC, electric WP, 4" FWI, heads, rockers and smaller pulley.
It didn't hit the track fully dressed with all the goodies.
