I went out to the track today with some friends, I was going to just watch then decided to make a couple runs. I was figuring about 12.9-13.0 on the street tires. I remember last year someone or a group of people said I couldnt have in any way ran a 12.74. Well here ya go. Car 353, footballs pumped up and fronts at 30 psi. Tires are Contenental DWS tires(all season)

 

Very cool!

 

Nice times man

 

those are really good times for street tires. I've seen AGP Big Turbo SRT4's run mid 13's with the same and more trap speed. You sir can drive!

 

Thanks guys. Kildore how's things going for you at the track?

 

Whats up with your traps. You were doing 115 on streets with your old tune

 

Only went 115 twice. But yea I havent hit 113 this year yet. I dont know whats going on.

 

whats the point of footballs

 

to play catch

 

To prevent the rearend squating. Work like dragbags.

Thats inbetween runs.

 

I really wanted to try this I even put them in my rear and when I got to the track the needle broke FML

Any ways great times man good luck with getting in to the 11's

 

Great driving Cmiller! You sir, officially get my avatar.

 

Does anybody have pics of the footballs on their vehicle?

 

Nice

Regarding the footballs-hatrickstu had pics some time ago; anybody use them w/o removing bumpstops? Do they fit, work as well,etc?

damnit beat me to it^^

 

nice man...were u spinning on those 115 runs??

 

Yea, but street tires you spin no matter what, just have to regulate how much. These runs were with only 40% torque first gear lol.

 

yeah i know your gonna spin on street tires man just saying if u spin it usually means a slower time but a higher trap

 

so how do u do this football mod?

 

Here

 

Damn you got some Nike ones? lol

I must have got cheesy ones before cause they popped on me haha

 

Yes they will pop if you get the rubber ones. Has to be the leather wrapped ones lol.

 

I've always been curious, do you guys leave those footballs in all the time, or are they a "drag only" mod?

 

that's what I was wondering.

 

There in the springs all the time. Simply inflate and deflate at the track.
