Default TSP 228r, cam only. 12.52 @ 117.6


Good result? 2.3 (2.26) 60'... Should've had good tires but I had bald all seasons. Should I hit low 12's with sticky tires? What can it do if I nail the shifts on sticky tires? Should I be happy with the results?

That mph would get you a 11 second slip if you can 60 better

Not sure but its stock weight + me (230 ibs) + lightweight subwoofer. Wanted to burn off my 2/32 BFG all seasons. Didn't hook unfortunately

Very nice. Throw some dr's on your rims and you could probably hit an 11.9 I'm sure

I'll have to see. I'm on my 4th 10 bolt and I'm on road race suspension... Koni's and LT1 Eibachs and UMI control arms front and rear. Also have their seat bars. Hopefully I can hook and see what it'll actually run.

trap says easy 11's , et sounds mild bolt ons not cammed lol but sticky tires will fix that for you but cammed M6 on a sticky tire is going to need a rear upgrade or you will quickly be on your 5th 10 bolt...

Yeah it spun 1st and 2nd. I lifted to shift to 3rd and continued power shifting 4th... I just didn't know how much the et would improve if I didn't spin 1 and 2. I put a girdle on my 10-bolt this time around.

Figure you pick up .2 et for every .1 you shave off the 60'. If you want to hook, you need ET Street Bias Plys or Hoosier QTP's, or some other similar bias ply. Radials and M6 don't usually play well together. Obviously, there are M6 cars that have done well on a radial, but that's the exception instead of the rule.
