Re: Went to the Track...

with good 60ft time 1.8 or so you should be deep in to the 12s. I have had enough with my crappy 60ft times. 2.0 being my best ever. Im gitting a 4.10 with T/A cover, pro stars with big oll mickey thompson street radials, LCAs and some other goodies to make the damn thing stick.

Dang, you need traction bad. Can't wait to see how you do once you can hook.

Re: Went to the Track...

Im gonna guess 12.5's at about 115mph on a good pass. but clearly theres tons of room for improvement with better air and some good traction. what are you shifting at? curious with that cam cause I just helped a buddy put that same cam in. and its time for a 4.10 huh?

114 is a mid 12 trap. What a beast. Can't wait for the stickys to be on there and see what she really runs.

I guess it all depends on the car. My car trapped at 110Mph and I ran a 12.3 with a 1.8? sixty time.

Holy Crap, 11.80's at 110Mph.

It has to be an auto with a huge converter, right.

Do give details on the car.

Thanks,

Bill

Hey Al,

11.40's now............ Nice. What size converter are you running. What tires?

I am looking at upgrading my 2800 converter. I did my 12.3 @ 110Mph with a 1.85 60' at Milan on Eagle F1's. I have a new set of 275/40/17 Nitto Drag radials going on the car Saturday. I hope with going to a 3600-3800 converter and Nittos I can get the car down to a 1.6? 60' time and get the car into the high 11's.

Later,

Bill

Re: Went to the Track...

I think your 12.627 sounds about right.
