im heading to the track for the first time with my current setup. what do you guys think ill run? 8th and quarter? ill be driving in street tires (295/35/18). at what rpm do you guys think i should launch at? thanks
A 14.0 14.2 should be possible on a well prepped track. Try revving to 2800 and slipping the clutch while slowly rolling into the throttle. You want to go wide open just after you completely release the clutch. Doing this has resulted in anywhere from 1.98-2.06 60 ft's for me on a good track.
I would run very consistent 13.8-14.0 @ 98.5mph with only hpipe, 373 gears, and UD pulleys the major mods. I had 255/50/16 DR's though, and if I could get a 1.8 60' it would run 13's.
You def are going to need stickier tires, if you had dr's you would run 13s no problem.
yeah, im trying to get dr's before i go to the track. im not sure im gonna go without dr's. i know horsepower doesent mean your gonna run fast on the track, but i dynoed 226/292 with only cai, Lt's, midpipe, and catback. i feel that if i can hook, i can run some decent times. thanks for your info guys
I dyno'd 220/288 with the mods listed above, so you def have the power to run 13's, you will need a 60' under 2.0, which means get some dr's. Trust me skip the nitto's and go BFG or Mickey thompson.
BFG's and MT's both hook better than the Nitto's no doubt but they don't last near as long either. The MT's hook better than all of them but from what I hear they only last about 3,000 miles. With drag radials and good driving high 13's should be very possible but with the regular street radials low 14's is what I would expect.
