most are droping a .6 to .5 in the 1/4 mile depending on traction you should get yourself a set of nittos drag radials it will help a lil on the street... and be carfull when you lay into it your *** end will be all over the place

Yeah loss, do you want to gain time in the 1/4mi?? Sounds like everyone so far has seen seen a nice gain in MPH and shaved off a good .5 in the 1/4mi. Thanks for the responce fellas

Good thread I'm waiting to see how mine effects once I get a chance to make it to the track. Good point about the "loss in E.T." I was thinking the same thing Scottyballs was.

lost .7 on my et gain 2 MPH, BUT I had HORRIBLE traction... even with ET Streets. Hopefully with good traction I'll lose more on the et and gain more MPH

A loss in 1/4 mile time to me would still be +e.t. a gain to me would be -e.t. kinda *** backwards but but it sounds right

I dropped a little over .4 on my et but lost 2mphTthe weather was worse today.I heard someone say the altitude was around 5200 feet today.And almost all the people I talked to was running slower than last time.So I think I could of dropped more tenths if the weather condition was the same as last time I ran,and I think that was why my mph was down.Btw my car is completly stock besides 3500 and some hoosier QTP's
