New Track #'s

Well, I had gone to the track three weeks ago and only bested a 12.80 @ 111.# w/2.0 60'. Since then I only played with the A/F and had much better track conditions. My best run was the following:

60' - 2.074
1/8 - 8.231
mph - 90.12
1/4 - 12.583
mph - 114.10

Best 1/8mph was 90.47mph and best 1/4mph was 114.40. I think with better traction 1.8-1.9 I should easily see 12.3-12.3's.

What suspension stuff do you have? What about tires?

BFG 255/50-16 dr's
BMR LCA's
BMR subframe connectors (not installed yet)

I probably could have got a better 60' if I ran more times, but 4 was enough. I had places to be in the afternoon.

That mph looks like an 11 sec mph, at least the vettes I've seen running 11's at NED (pair of C4's) seem to be in that range (11.8ish@115or so).............I have a stock suspension except for a Spohn torque arm.......and that put a lot of bite into my launches, try one of those out......should help that 60 ft a bit.

Looks good

Heard it was awesome up there Saturday.

Did you see my friend with the black WS6 running 11.6-11.7's??
He was launching at 5800rpm and pulling 1.5-1.6 60's on road race suspension

Brian - definitely torque arm over the winter

Don, I saw your buds car, but didnt see him run. What mods he got? I saw he was sporting skinnies and slicks.

John - I reset the comp on the last run but blew the launch (2.3# 60').

With better traction I should see a low 12 for sure.
