You can put me down for a 12.85 @ 109. I'll get the slip uploaded here shortly.

 

Everytime this thread gets bumped I hope to head back to the track. Maybe I'll get 11's with the new setup.

 

is this still on a tvs, slicks, built motor, etc...

 

dont forget nitrous

 

No nitrous and yes on the big ass slicks that rub the bottom of my struts as they grow lol. Next trip to the track is going to be on street tires.

 

needs more power

 

mister 90lb injectors over here or w.e. lol sweeeet. i'm curious next time you take out your baby. highway or city. can you reset your mpg and drive economy. im curious what kinda mileage you getting. not downtalking, just pure curiosity.

 

it won't be accurate with those injectors.

 

the dic wont. but if youre smart you keep a log of when you fill up, and how many gallons.

 

about 24 in e-85. i went back to the 79's for right now. 34 on pump gas.

 

Lol no just needs smaller tires. They grow so much by the end of the track and rub the struts that it looks like I'm doing a burnout as I cross the traps. No joke. It's effectively like hitting the brakes.

 

why not get front coilovers?

 

streetdreams post your timeslip. or type up all the data

rears are just as important hon

 

If a car has part's from a shop.....that aren't available to the public for purchase, because they are prototypes / not in production ......is that a shop car?

 

Yes. All the way.

 

lol, my trap speed would put me in 2nd

 

I have nothing against ZZP , I'm not a hater that bashes them constantly or anything like that...I bought their DP LOL . But if it sounds like a shop car .....and acts like a shop car.......guess what LOL .

I'm not even close to competing on in this throwdown so I'm not asking for me.......But I see guy's who work in their driveway's and scrape to buy parts for their car's ....... being forced to compete with the resources of a shop. Why is this being let go when the rules state "no shop cars" ?

Extremely valid point!

 

i meant for clearance.

 

Because the tires hit the bottom of the struts themselves, not the wheel well.

Agreed that the rears are uber important. The method I think most effective? Footballs and limiting chains in the back. Shove the footballs in, lower the car, have two friends sit on the trunk, bolt up the chains. Voila! Stiff as a rock. **** preload lol. Slip numbers:

60 - 1.9775
330 - 5.5305
1/8 - 8.3860 @ 86.84
1000 - 10.8000
1/4 - 12.8430 @ 109.62

Track Elevation is 1,110 ft. Kinda high. I should post up pics of the tire issue. Mtbrent on here saw it first hand. They rub BAD! I'm fairly sure they rub from the second I warm them up. M/T says 1/2" rollout. Bullshit, it's more like 1" rollout. I am seriously expecting better times on street tires. These 1/4 mile times do my car no justice to it's actual power.

 

I still think nothing good can come from that track, at least not without them putting some effort into using some traction compound....

 

yeah, cause the factory ones are over the inside few inches of thread width. coilovers, iirc, have a LOT smaller diameter and do not cover any part of the tire. which would solve your rubbing issues

 

something fucked up is going on with your car streetdreamz. it's lacking severely somewhere

 

i think its cuase its an ion.

 

It's the tires. It's been said and shown time and time again. The math, the numbers, the feel, the pull, in no way does it add up to the 1/4 mile times/speeds I am seeing. There is a 459whp GTO around here that consistently lays down like 11.8 1/4 times, and even off the bottle I edge him out every time by 100. Idk, I'm hoping this weekend's track outing comes through on street tires. I am going to order a set of drag radials that fit for now, but I don't think they will come through in time.
