Default new times

Went to the track this weekend . I couldnt run what I did last year. The track was pretty slick. The tires broke loose shifting into 3rd gear. I ran a 13.75 at 106.5 with a 2.45 60'. I have bald tires which explains my 60' time. . My mph is definetely there. I had one time that was 13.78 at 106.9. I think the ftra and texas speed and performance lid helped out but I need some traction. What do you guys think I will run with traction?

thanks

just curious what track in NY you ran this as i ran in cicero at ESTA on saturday. as for as your mph being its because of all the spinning. but i think with a set of drag radials you'll be low 13's. Hell i only ran 115 mph at 11.69

I was at ESTA. I was probably parked right next to you. I had the silver ss. The kid with the orange ss and the black 95 firehawk went to the same high school as me. I see you got alot of stuff done to your ride. What did you think of the pulleys, worth it. Im thinking about doing some bolt on stuff for now. Sweet ride by the way...

Get that 60ft down and i would bet a high 12 is in your near future. I run 12.8 with a 106 mph on a 1.8 60ft time. Hope this info helps ya feel better. Practice and get drag radials. I was on a set of worn 275/40/17's. Now have 315/35/17's and traction is night and day better.
