ET Questions My best ET so for is 11.72 with a 60'of 1.630 and MPH of 117.14. I bought 15 inch convo pros for rear with MT slicks to replace 17 inch Nittos on stock rims. The slicks are 26.10.15. With the slicks and less rotational weight, this is my question. If I run a 60' time of 1.55 to 1.57, what would my ET be for the quarter mile? Your assistance will be highly appreciated. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
Re: ET Questions Well it depends. The rule of thumb is every .1 reduction in your 60ft. is equal to .15 in the 1/4. But if you're spinning out past 60ft., you could gain more. The slicks probably won't spin between shifts like the drag radials would.
Good choice in wheel/tire btw. I just got my Hoosier 26X10X15 slicks and I get to try them out this weekend as well. I'm interested in seeing how they do compared to the Hoosier DOT.

Re: ET Questions Thanks for the reply Jantzer. I hope I can get into 1.5's for the first time to run a new ET on my setup. Maybe , <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" /> you have the right weather this weekend and run a new time. I am pulling for you and set a new one. <img border="0" alt="[Firebird]" title="" src="graemlins/formula.gif" /> I am going to try your launch technique you explained in one of your threads. Again, thanks for the reply and go for the record. Kent. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
