I haven't been around too many f-body street cars cranking out 400 + rwhp, thus I would like to get a feel of possibile 1/4 mile capabilites of current setup.
The car is a typical 99 WS6 M6. Assume minor weight reductions such as: minimal fuel, no jack , nothing not normally fastened down removed. (Would 3500 lbs w/out driver seems reasonable?)
Also assume ws6 wheels with Fls up front, disconnected sway bar and Drag Radials out back!
Car has 406 rwhp & 385 rwtq, 4:10s (stock 10 bolt), Kevlar clutch (see sig for more details)
What would be a resonable short time & 1/4 time with this setup?
Now if replace the 10 bolt with a 12 bolt (same 4:10 gears) and ET Streets...What would be a resonable short time & 1/4 time with this setup?
I'm no Evan Smith and not willing to go 6K dumps on slicks just a "normal" street freak that likes to go to the track on occcasion.
Thanx for the input!

Todd, I think you could be in the high 11's to low 12's on decent 60's. <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" /> I think it will really depend on how well the car hooks, track prep & the driver. <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />
If you drive a stick like I do <img src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" border="0"> you'll be in the 14's regardless of the car! <img src="images/icons/shocked.gif" border="0">
If it's not raining are you going to the Rock on Sunday?

Guessing 1/4 mile times is a bad business, and a M6 makes that even worst. There are WAY too many things that can affect good performance at the track.
One way to find out.. take it to the track!
BTW: My car only makes 314rwhp, but it uses it well <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Well I have about 397 at the wheels and my last time to Englishtown I ran an 11.81 @ 119 mph race weight was about 3480. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0"> with that HP and a goop prep track you will see 11's for sure
