ran at the track again, results inside

[slo65]

well this was my third time to the track i believe on the mickey thompson et street radials, i'm sure donny (superslothguy) will chime in, as we went heads up about 10 times

best run of the night was

1.83 60'
8.70 1/8th
78.66mph

also had a

1.82 60'
8.75 1/8th
78.74mph

and a couple other runs in the 8.7's

best 60' of the night was 1.81, and best trap was 78.9mph

this is all with the mods in my sig, i went back to the stock clutch fan/shroud since i was having problems with the electric fan/stock alternator

this is all on stockmotor/suspension, wondering how much lower i could go?, i know i could powershift, but it is my daily driver, and i dont feel like taking the chance, also wondering where to go from here, i'm thinking lca's perhaps, and some practice obviously, anywho some imput would be appreciated

i actually ran the best time when i got off the freeway, it was 80+ degrees, 3.73 gears, so i go through the traps in 3rd at about 5500, as far as exhaust it's bbk shortys (damn california smog) 2.5" catted (hi flow) h pipe, into flowmaster 40 series, no tail pipes, besides that the car's fms pullies (shiny blue ), k&n (in the engine bay, loss of power ) thats it for power, and i have a mgw shifter, i love it

how were you leaving the line? riding the clutch some or dumping it? are these the 16" et street radials? i am considering those type tires myself, how are they on the street? pick up a lot of stuff? wear quickly?

4k, drop the clutch, they're 15" i mounted them on some 10 holes, they're for track only, i put them on at the house, drive to the track, drop the pressure, race, then after i fill them up a little with some little ciggarette lighter compressor i bought (pos) then head home, change them the next day, they're 235/60/15's by the way, they're fine on the street, i usually dont keep them on for more than 2 days though, but they're great in corners, i assume they wear quickly they're a very very soft compound, they pick up every pebble/rock, anywho i'm off to work but if u have any more questions i'll answer them after, or just pm me
