Default What E/T do you have run to.....

I see these pictures of cars running mid and low 11's and pulling the tires off the ground. I was wondering what 1/4 time does the front end start coming off the ground? I know that every car I different but, I just want a general goal to set. I think it would be cool to say "yeah, it'll pull the tires off the ground" and mean it.

it takes good weight transfer and a decent set of front shocks and some other suspension would help too.

there is no set ET where it starts to happen, it really just depends on the car

my car pulled the front tire running 1.8 60's. it's all in how the car works. there is no special ET that makes it happen,it's all in the chassis tuning.

before the trans broke,it had both front tires about 6" off the ground and was averaging 1.59 60's.
