Well I'm at the drag strip. Blew my y pipe apart twice. My 3rd run is as follows
2.0 60ft
5.4 330ft
8.0@91
I'm creeping off the line, barely into 2nd. This on 285 falken street tires
Also running my traction control map on my haltech which pulls a lot of timing in 1st and 2nd.

That's a normal 60' for a novice on street tires. That car is fast. I ran a 12.5 on my Vortech with a 8.2 sec 1/8 mile. And that was with a slightly faster 60' (1.99) and top of the line street tires. I don't know much about 1/4 mile. But a low 12 sec pass on street tires is faster than most. I'm sure his car could get low 12s easy.

With regular street Tires (not super sticky) it's hard to do much better that a 1.90
Get some good ET Streets or ET Drags, not Radials.
You better run 11's, as you have a Stock Motor Vortech out in front of you.

And what was your 1/4 mile ET?
Low Powered 14.00 second Cars on street tires are Extremely Easy to drive out of the Hole vs a High Performance 11.00-12.00 second car on street tires.

The closest 1/4 track is maybe 2 hours away. I might hit it up when I have a weekend off. Only have 1 weekend a month off.. I know 11s will be no problem, I just need to get a tire out back first. I know with one more run that a high 1.9 60ft would of been recorded but 1 side of track got closed and that ended my night.
