As promised...

OK, here's more info. First, I verified the speedometer accuracy with the newly-mounted 18-inch wheels, Indicated - Acutal:

25 - 25
50 - 50
75 - 75
100 - 99
120 - 117 (!?)

Anyway it seems very very close to 100mph. With that done, I did two stopwatch runs to 100mph. Both were about 16.5 seconds, no wheelspin at launch. I did a few more 1/4 mile runs with the AP-22 as well. Here's the BEST numbers from last week, and today (engine temps 85-90C for all runs) :

Last week (60F, 92 octane, stock tires)
15.11 @ 95.2mph, 60' time 2.66, 0-60 = 6.62

Today (67F, 95 octane, 275/35 S-03's)
15.42 @ 92.4mph, 60' time 2.72, 0-60 = 6.91

Full data on all 9 runs (six last week, three today) are in this text file for your enjoyment:
