Default Ls1 rx7 now in the 11's

She has now made about 20 passes in the 11's.

The best so far has been 11.4 @ 125.10 with a 1.68 60".

The bottle pressure was not cooperating the last time at the track...so the 11.4 pass was made with the bottle pressure sitting less than 600psi...the car was probably running very rich during the pass.

Going to Ennis this weekend and looking to go 10 something...

Car weighed in at a hefty 3155 on the 11.4 pass. With a good diet i should be able to get her down to 3000 lbs.

nice run(s). can you put skinnies up front? thatd drop 50lbs depending on how much your current wheel/tire combo weighs and have less rolling resistance as well. how much gas did u have in it? gasoline is 7lbs/gallon. 7 less gallons is 49lbs

i wish i was a "hefty 3155lbs" lol

Thank You...

I will eventually go to skinnies for the weight savings...only had 3 gallons of gas in the car. Next time i will probably pull the rear sub box out...probably close 75lbs.

Car went 11.3 @ 125.77 last week. Here's a few videos...

Are you running ET Streets? I thought if you had a bias ply tire like the ET Streets you are not supposed to run a regular street tire up front. Have you had any problems with the combo?
