im just wondering what to expect when i hit the track somwetime in the near future if i get all my bugs worked out.

but im usually in the solid 1.58-1.66's on nittos rolling into the throttle. But with what street time ive gotten so far with the 224/224 .563 114 cam in it feels like traction is harder to get than before.

so, will my 60's get slower? Or stay the same? better maybe?

i have a vig3600 and 3.23's/all bolt ons

i want to get on the track, but ive got alot of little tuning issues to work out <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

may improve since you probably gained torque in your stall speed range. but your tires will be the limiting factor <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Should be harder to get traction especially on Nittos. If you do get traction, it will be really inconsistent at the track. Get some slicks on that thing. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Traction will be limited on nitto's unless your track prep is very good. I can't get the car to hook anymore with the 15x10.5 ET Streets at mine so im looking into a bigger tire to get my 60fts. back. A hard spin will get me a 1.70-1.68 60ft. and a soft spin will get me in the mid 1.6s <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> The cam will give you more low end than you think,so be ready at the track for some major spinning if you flash the converter HARD. I have to raise my launch up about 300 rpms just to get the car to hook some low 1.7s on the streets. I love my cam but it's hard on LITTLE tires <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

my 60s went from 1.55 in AWESOME weather on a nitto, to 1.6s in the heat on nittos and et streets. i put a 224 cam in and it dropped back down to high 1.5s on the et streets in the heat <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

vig3200 stall.

right now im still testing out these springs to see if anymore decide to break on me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

i guess ill have to relearn my launch.. took me a year to get from 1.8's to 1.5's on nittos... now it will probably take another year to find the medium zone.

cant get slicks on here right now,cause if i break my year ill have to wait a while to fix. Baby mod is draining my paycheck and the crops just plain suck

but ill be happy with anything in the 11.8-9 range in this heat right now though <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

11.6's would be sweet though.. on nittos who knows <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Stu

Dont see a problem with 11.6's considerin where you were before.

Congrats on the one year old. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
