what kind of 60' times are you guys pulling with stock sized 245/50/16 bfg drag radials? How much power are you putting down?

 

Moot point. BFG does not make a drag radial in that size. The closest to that size is a 255/50R16. My buddy pulled a 2.0 60' with a fairly worn set on a '91 5.0. I will tell you how they hook in a couple months with my car.

 

"Steve Y" is correct. The size you probably mean is 255/50/16, not 245/50/16. Not much difference size-wise though between the two.

I'm on my 4th set. You can check my sig for 60' times. The last dyno pull showed 335 RWHP and 345 RWTQ. And that was with a bad Opti.

I generally run ~18 psi in them and do a hot burnout.

 

oh, yea i ment 255, but from your 60' it looks like they hoow fairly well

 

Considering I only have a 2800 converter and my porky race weight I'd say, Yeah, they hook pretty well

 

I 1.74'd on them, stock suspension and bolt ons, 6 speed.

 

I did pretty well on them, time in the sig, raceweight was 38XX with only a 2600 converter. Theyre pretty damn good.

 

1.63

Stock rims, KBDD, IRS LCA, 2000 rpm launch on motor.

 

What kind of rpms are you leaving the line at?

 

They hook good (on a well prepped track), they more of a "drag racing" tire as opposed to the Nittos

 

60' times and mods in sig. I usually adjust tire pressure from 16-18 psi depending on how good the track is hooking.

 

Around 5200-5300.

 

i tried running on these tires for a while and could only pull low 1.9'-2.0's on them. swapped to 26x11.5 ET streets and went low 1.7's!!!! i say screw dR's unless u are using them on the street

 

Russ, is that a full on clutch dump or are your riding it out, if riding it out about when does full engagement come in?

Steve

 

i swear i found my next set of tires after hearing 1.63's on em! i won't hafta heat em up at all and that will save the tread wear

may all of you prayer for the rear end!
