Default Allngn_c5 hitting Milan for TNT, Please post your guess, RESULTS will follow!

As the title says, I am walking out the door as I type. Please guess my 60, ET, and trap. No prizes at stake, unless you count bragging rights. Setup is in my sig, and I'll be working with those Nittos Drags.

My guess on best run will be 2.0 60 ft, 11.3 ET and 129 MPH

Hopefully I don't have my sights set toooooo high. I'm sure the car can do better then that with a better driver, but thats my guess.

Please post up comments and/or guesses.

WISH ME LUCK, I am going to need it.


Mike at Vengeance did a great job with the tuning, lets see if I can drive this bitch at the track like I drive it on the street!!!

Whats the weather like up there now a days? I bet you can do it, Nittos will make it tough though, should definitely consider some MT radials for your setup for next spring.

Nothing like putting a little pressure on yourself.

11.50

130mph


...but you have the ability to go much quicker. You just need to do it pimpin. No reason why you shouldn't start off with a STARTOFF et,..then chisel away at the time as the night progresses. I think nittos aren't that great but, they work wonders for me when I need them too. Get a nice decent launch,... and BANG them gears man,.. hit everyone....powershift,... and I think you can go 11.0's all night.

It's all you you jeeves. I voted no, for tens...for tonight. If you proveme wrong,... i'll send you a present.

nittos are junk...you wont hook on the launch or on the shifts unless your track is supreme...do a big smokey burnout...20psi in the radials

Your guys' ET guess with 2.0+ 60fts are just unrealistic

He will be a lot closer to high 11's than he will high 10's lol. First time out, not great DA, tires that don't hook that well, stock gearing.

I'm guessing an 11.78

what was your ET and mph for those runs?

Were you rolling with 540rwhp and 500rwtq? I pulled 1.9 and 2.0 60's on 18" nitto 555 street tires in my Nissan Maxima, doesn't compare really to this equation.

First time out with a lot of factors working against you. Mid 11's is a much more reasonable goal. It's going to take traction and a better 60 (driver) to get into the 10's.

Might not be what you want to hear but at least you're getting attention.

read my post bub....i put that the ET guesses that people were guessing with 2.0 60fts that THEY were guessing were unrealistic due to the crappy 60ft that THEY guessed...Im not dumb...on a good track i realize that nittos can lead to 1.6 60s
