Default Another new best with the m/t drag radials.

I did not get better tehn the 1.59 from a few weeks ago at No Problem raceway, but I did run a new best time. Track was Sucking for most of the night but I was able to get in a 11.46 @121.03 mph with a 1.65 60 ft.
Went back out and brought the revs from 4000 rpm to 5500 and pulled off a 1.62 60 ft, 11.38@121.3 mph for my new best. car was around 3700 lbs with a 1/2 tank of gas but with skinnies on the front.

Thanks Allan Futral for a kick *** cam and badass tune, Hats off to the little guy

I got warned for the 11.38. They told me to slow it down and of course The track went away so I did not even have to try to slow it down.

Thanks Jason, That makes .3 tenths and 2 mph over the c1 cam.
I believe if I would have went to Npr , I would have done better, Gulfport was pretty slick. Very fine line between Bog and spin.

Just so you know, if the track is good you can run more air. I pulled a 1.44 with 22 psi in the M/T drag radials last night. I think my valve springs are about dead though. Ran 10.78 but only went 123.3mph

Your running pretty good to be so heavy.

Good run with your setup. I just got some 275/17MTs this week to replace my BFG drags, unfortunately our cooler air is about over in Orlando so my new best will probably last awile. Dont forget NHRA alows 11.49 without rollcage in 05, so once it warms up you`ll be legal.

Yeah, it was nice last night. I did not let any air out of the tires but the track was not prepped as it was a Friday cruise in with no prep. tThe car has some mid 1.5's with these tires.

Tim, I am happy with the new best. Not going to try to do better this year

M/T is saying they got best results @ 12-16 psi..
Same psi as their ET Streets..
I emailed them to confirm, and the guy was insistent at running them 12-16 psi..
