First time track results

Well I took my car to the 1/4 for the last time this year. I ran my best time so far. I went 12.43 at 109 with a 1.86 60ft time. I think my 1/8 was 7.9x. (time slip is at home I'm ashamed I don't remember.) I did mix some 110 race gas and bumped my timing up to 38 degrees, because my compression is close to 11:1, (what a difference that makes even on the street I can feel it)This was done with my street tires. I guess the plan is to get a set of 15 drag rims and et streets. I'm going to replace the valve springs and put some 1.65 rockers next and see where that gets me. I'm hoping I can dip into the 11's but I'm not going to change the suspension to do it because the car handles awesome. I want to just go as fast as I can in street trim with some drag tires. What you guys think I can do it? Here's a pic

Nice times...I think if you swapped you 1 5/8" longtubes back on you 60 foot times would pick up. Quite a bit more torque in the mid range. Keep at it and the 60 foots will fall. Mine does not like to hook as well either. In fact it only dead hooked once...man that feels sweet!
