Made it to the Club...

Test and tune night at SAR, weather was ok, kinda sticky due to storms and higher than normal temps, for this time of year.
So anyway, i wanted to give the good ol nittos one more shot now that I have LCA's and panhard bar. My worst at normal PSI 2.2 60, and went 12.7 112.
Then the MPH reader quit working so i wont count a couple of pases i made. whenever they did their adjustment they mentioned it may be a lil off or turn off again.
Next Pass
12.1 2.0 60ft @ 113.4 MPH

Last pass
11.8 1.8 60ft @ 117

What's frustratin... going from 112, 113.4 to 117. And not knowing where my true trap speed is.

Based on my best time, what MPH do you think my car really is? I only had driver seat in as well. Not sure how much that helped and also put some 109.

I'll be on 150 shot soon... So yes, 10s is the goal with good 60 ft.

congrats on the snake eyes.....your last pass seems about right, although I
would think your car has 1.55-1.60 sixty ft. potential. Perhaps new tires B4
hitting the NOS.

I had nothing but bad luck with these nitto 555r's, When i was cam stall only, i cut a 1.8 On Federal's street tire.
Soon I'll have something decent, and get that 1.6 60ft.
