Default New pb 11.54, massive wheelstand pic!

Ok so it lifted the drivers front like an inch lol, pulling the tire is pulling the tire thought right?

Switched from nitto 555r to toyo tq drag radials. Car went from mid 1.7 60ft on the nitto to consistent low 1.6's.

Previous best-
1.70
7.57@91 1/8
11.81@117

New best today-
1.63
7.37@93
11.54@119

Should have pics and video soon

Yeah the heads really flow on top end, im only pulling it to 6600 (still making power) though bc im on a stock trans. Gives me hope that once i get my built trans and rev it out it will do over 120

Sorry for the crappy pic, but its a screen shot i took from my buddy editing the video off his laptop.

I know its not much, but lifting the tire is lifting the tire lol! Not bad for bone stock suspension, stock trans and 10 bolt.

Nice! yeah ive always just ran the 555r and had the mentality it was "good enough." Well i came across a post talking ab the toyo and looked into them. I couldnt believe how cheap they were so i went for it and im glad i did. I told a few buddies who never heard of them that they were going to be an upgrade and they didnt believe me, needless to say i think the next tires they purchase will be the toyo lol. They are still skeptical that they wont last over 5000miles like a BFG but i have heard numerous ppl including yourself with 6000+ plus miles on them with no major wear. i got 15K out of the nittos so if these make it to 10K then its worth it to me.

No sfc's, absolutely bone stock suspension. The motor is built, trans is bone stock with 150K miles and i have a vigilante 3200 stall. Rear end is factory 10 bolt with motive 3:73's. Car is full weight, full optioned t top car with no weight taken out at all.
