going to track tonight/got some ???

im trying to get my car into the 13's and i just wanted to know what gain if any should i see from removing the swaybar, back seat and getting some dr's? last time i went i hotlapped my car to a 14.4@96. also how does tire height affect e/t, because the dr's i have are 26.1 and my street tires are 25.7?

I say youll get 13 for sure. The back seat and sway bar are good for maybe 2-5 hundreths and the drag radials will help you out a whole bunch.....they will help greatly on consistency too. I dont think the different size in your tire will hurt you much, but it may make the speedometer off a little. Good luck man...you can do it! I am trying for 13.7 tonight with my mods in sig plus some weight reduction.

Weather conditions alone can potentially create a 4 tenth difference, in either direction.
