Well guys I have got a two part question. First I have another "what will I run." OK with the mods listed in my sig I ran a 9.3 @ 75 or 76 mph 1/8 mile. I was running on Kuhmo 712's at around 25 psi. I had decent traction and stock 3.08 gears. This was on a fun night where they put down very little traction compound.
Now I have 3.73 gears extra tight stacked posi, Pro 5.0 shifter, hopefully my subs will be installed by then, and a set of brand new 26x10.5 et streets. I will be running on a saturday night bracket race in a week or two. There should actually be compound down, I have no idea what the weather will be obviously, but can anyone give me an estimate on what I will run???
Also, I ran another fun night w/ the gears on street tires. But I couldnt get below 9.6 that night. It was horrid, but I was told everyone was running shotty times.
****Here is the real imortant question now I have a friend w/ a 92 shortbed 1/2 ton chevy pickup. He has mild 350, 350 turbo, 3.73 posi combo right now. The same night I ran 9.3 he was running 9.6, but he is going to swap in a 406 (built, but I am not sure how much but I probley enough to scare me) for the saturday night bracket drags to race me. He will be running on slicks, actual drag slicks not et streets like I have, they are used, but good.
If anybody can tell me whether I might have a chance against him. My car is pretty much stock, but I know there are a few more tricks I can pull out of her. (short belt, front sway bar, take out anything and everything for weight savings, etc.)
HELP me out here guys one of my freinds has $50 riding on me beating him.
