New Best ET for hugger...

Went to milan today ran a best of 12.627@ 113.01 on a 2.041 60ft. was shooting for at least a 12.5 but I know there is a few tenths left in her. I also ran 3 12.7s and a 12.8. If im not to lazy I will have video posted tomarrow.

That 60ft. sucks. Get it down in the 1.9's and you'll pull off a 12.50.

I just got my self a set of BFGs Drag radials the launch feels a little soft. If i launch at 3,000 I spin and if I launch at 2,800 I bog. I think my clutch might be on its way out again damn SPEC. I wonder if a gear would help me get out of the hole better.
Heres the video
My 12.6 pass

Re: New Best ET for hugger...

Time for some suspension upgrades Also what kind of pressure were you running in the DR's? They need a good long burnout for the 1st time to make them good and sticky.

Re: New Best ET for hugger...

I took it to Lapeer once this summer and had major traction prloblems with my Nitto's. It hooked great off the line, but once it got into the boost it lit them up. I was going 60 mph and could still see smoke in my side mirror, but I never let off. I had a couple 13.1's with 2.8 60's. I went home.

I'll throw some ET's on there next summer and get kicked off the track.

I'd be happy with 12.6. Buy a few more mods over the winter and throw them on in the spring and go get her tuned. Thats what I
'm doing.

Thats what i plan on doing, the rest of the bolt ons (LS-6 intake, ported throttlebody and a ASP pully) and maybe a TR 224 cam. But I have to draw the line somewhere It is my daily driver in the summer so it cant be too much of a race car.
2.8 60ft thats 8 tenths right there you will probly be deep in to the 11s
