Default 10's on Goodyear eagles

Went to the track today and finally broke into the 10's on the 315 35 17 Goodyear eagle GS-D3's.

Tire pressure was 28psi, short 2nd gear burnout, slipped the clutch out in 1st then floored, easy in 2nd, all out in 3rd and 4th.

Slip reads-

60ft 1.956
1/8 7.313
1/8mph 109.50
1/4 10.874
1/4mph 142.20

Also ran 11.0 @143.54, 11.1@143.03, and 11.3@139.10.


Not extraordinarily fast, but I'm happy to break into the 10's on those tires as it's been eluding me for so long.

Thank you again for coming out.

Cool!
Sounds like a tire frying night

Congrats!

I've been able to knock off a 11.16 with 17's all around (315 Nitto). Got a 10.98 with the 315's on the back and skinnies up front. Of course your running about 20 mph faster than me

Freaking sick! Nice job, I'm sure you kept saying something along the lines of "come on, don't spin!"

Man I like that car a lot. 10s on crappy tires... plus it pushes 200mph. Great times in the quarter, crazy top speed. This car is amazing.
Makes me think of some turbo set-up for my car.
Congrats!

Andy, I was hoping you would come out this past friday with your beast I told Jim to get ahold of you.

I'm sure we got the run on video, so I'll ask the guys that filmed the event.
