Re: New Best Times!

pretty awesome for just a cam and some bolt ons. how do you guys make your cars soo quick w/such low MPH? or is that mph typical of a low 12? my Iroc last year went 12.69 at 114mph on a 1.8x 60 w/drag radials and 3:73 gears. crappy stall conv. though. barely brake torqued to 1500 w/o spinning the tires. does a vigi. stall conv. make that much diff. over a cheap stall, given the same stall values? or 3000 vigi vs. 3000 torco stalls?

Re: New Best Times!

Nick I'm watching you What kind of tires are you running. When I first broke into the 11's I ran BFG drag radials and the trick was running as much air as you could with out spinning. I ran 11.86 114 then with a 1.63 60ft. Good Luck Frank95z
