Post your BEST 60's and your wheel/tire combo I am trying to see if 26x9 inch Hoosiers on Centerline 15x7-7.5 rims can hit a 1.48 sixty.
What are your best sixty foots and what were your suspension mods and wheel/slick combo?
Thanks guys,
Chris
It's no good to have the power if you can't hook it.

Re: Post your BEST 60's and your wheel/tire combo My best 60 was a 1.52. That was with the completely stock suspension down to the rubber bushings. I was using 15x8 Draglites with 26x10.5-15 ET Streets set @ 18PSI. That was before my major weight reduction and internal mods <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> I can't wait to see want it will do once I get back to the track <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

Re: Post your BEST 60's and your wheel/tire combo Thanks for the info guys, I am hoping with 26x9 inch hoosiers and Centerlines I will be in the high 1.4 to low 1.5 range.
