60'-1.88
1/8-8.14 @ 86mph
1/4-12.71 @ 107
Went to the track with street tires tonight, needless to say traction was non existant. For spinning pretty bad im pretty happy with the time. With some m/t you guys think 12.30s-12.40s would be possible?

Your MPH will probably stay about the same w/traction. If your talking about 8sec- 9sec cars they will pick up MPH if they run better to the 330', they'll run more MPH because they have enough power to take advantage of the extra momentum gained in the short time.
The MT radials can make a big difference but if the track is not prepped you may still have traction issues with that big stall.

With my street cars that I've raced and watching other 11sec 12/13sec cars it seems like the 60' didn't effect the MPH too much. With all out racecars if they don't launch good it takes away momentum which hurts ET and MPH. If a 900hp car gains 4mph its a smaller % of their power compaired to a 400hp car gaining 4mph.

Went to the track again tonight, planned on watching but $8 more to run so what the hell. I ordered some bfg radials but they arent here yet. Tonight I managed this on street tires.
1.78 -60'
8.01 @ 86 -1/8
12.56 @ 107 -1/4
Very suprised I went 1.78 60' with street tires, cant wait to see what some drag radials will do.

I always thought that having a bad 60ft (spinning or bogging) increased MPH. If your car is gonna go 12.2 at 107 what will mine run if I'm trapping 113? And why is my car so fast, I barely have any mods haha?
