Default Southern Speed put a smile on my face

I'm so pumped so sorry if I ramble. I just got back from Street Car Takeover here in Topeka, KS and with a 100% stock Fx4 Ecoboost with only a Southern Speed Inc. tune, I ran a 13.230 @ 101.25. I couldn't believe it. I was happy when I hit 13.7, then 13.5, then 13.4, then 13.3. The track was awesome and the weather was perfect, except for the sunburn. Im still smiling. The only thing that sucked was the announcers' were interviewing and commenting on all the other trucks with mods and slicks running 14's but didn't say a word to me. weird? Attached is the slip and the video. Thanks for looking.

Yes it was the latest version. They were running a pro tree so it was always a surprise when the green turned on.

I'll prob be going out there on the 30th for the next test and tune. Pm me if ur heading that way. I've only seen one ecoboost out there and he didn't know about tuning them.

Very impressive, especially for tune only.
