How many guys are running 130mph plus on spray?
I am talking about in the 1/4th on drag radials.. When I put the pump in and do some weight reduction I am thinking of taking her to the track for a few runs.. Some on motor and some on a 150 shot.. My car is currently over 3700lbs. I am going to take the bumper supports out and remove the back seat and seatbelts. What do you guys think i would run..? I currently run low 12's at 116mph plus at 3780lbs..

Re: How many guys are running 130mph plus on spray?
It is of my opinion that if the drag radial and the ET Street etc...is the exact same size MPH will go unchanged. I for one back when I ran ET Streets picked up MPH from 275/50/15 Drag Radials when I put on 26x11.50x15 ET Streets and this was a long time ago. Tire height is just a bit different 26.1 on the DR and 26.3 on the ET Streets. My car runs 120 on motor and have never sprayed it even once, had the bottle on before head/cam, but sold it. I think it would be very hard for you to see 130 right off, you would need to tune your car for nitrous to hit 130 and that would suffer on motor. This is just my opinion because from 116 to 130 is a lot for a 150 shot unless you're talking like TNT 150 rear wheel shot then yeah that's much more doable.

I am planning on doing some weight reduction. I have not been to the track on my current setup. My mph is up I am sure.. I run cars on the street all the time that trap 123mph and I beat them to 130mph on the street.. My last track run was not on a optimal setup..
