Default Took my V2 to the track last night

Im very pleased for the first outing. Strait off the highway she went 6.9x@104. That was without cool down or removing tire pressure! Best pass was 6.700@106.1

Tonight I was in full street trim, meaning stock front wheels and the 17" Welds in the rear with 295/45/17 MT radials on them. Man I'm impressed with this combo! We haven't gotten into suspension tuning or anything yet. The car went consistent 1.55 60 foot times. I think high 1.4's with more power and a stock converter is very possible! I think on nitrous with slicks these cars will go 1.40 or better.

Here's some pics of the car and my best slip tonight.





I'm positive we can go low 6.60's or better how she sits. DA was 3500+

Nice!

Those 60's are something I can only dream of...

Anybody know what a 106mph 1/8th translates to in the 1/4 - 125-130'ish?

106 * 1.25 = 132.5

From what I've seen in the V thread 1/4... thats probably the most accurate you can put that calculation to for both V1s and V2.

Crazy!
Is this the same setup as the 2009 V that you had for sale here?
