Ohio Boyz did a 1.18 at Thunder last year in the finals.I'm not sure if the clock was off but their 3500 lb (at the time) car leaped off the starting line harder than any stock suspended 4th gen I've ever seen.

It's a shame they broke their tranny on that pass or they would've went a 7 something.

Out of curiousity, what size of tires are most people using. Anything in the mid-low 1.2x range on a true 10" tire is damn good, IMO.

I was using 28/10.5W

I have gotten a 1.30 with my car running a 29.5/10.5 but didn't have enough power to get it going good. Now I do and I am shooting for low 1.2 60s on the same tire. It is a true 10.5 tire.
