I guess the MPH based on DA and race weight is our only best indicator so far.
What kind of MPH are you trapping?
I am looking for stock rear spring to replace my cut down WS6 convertible spring, they are way to stiff and I am spinning pretty good still. Hope new rear springs will help hook a little better.
Yea I have my bother right now or until he steps it up.
Those auto do work, he has a smaller came TR 227, Exhaust, verter, DR’s and stock 10 bolt, go figure

my best trap sofar is 117 and thats bogin after launchin but thats also in alot better da then you were gettin
in my da you would be trapin 123 but i sould be trapin somewhere arounf 119-120 soon as i get some kinks worked out with launchin
i would bett you ahve someing like 425 corected to the wheels because i have like 400 to the wheels with the ls6 intake but that was through a 10 bolt so probably now 385
what springs did you get?
i wana get some lt1 v6 springs and an airbag should launch even better
im tring to get my bro to buy a ws6 and he wants one because he loves my car but he dont have the funds yet so hes pickin up a 2002 V6 mustang 5 speed for his first stick car to learn on and is gettin it for 4000 which is a steal and we are going to juice the ***** off of it hahaha

I have stock WS6 convertible spring that I cut one coil off to lower the rear. They were to stiff to start with and now after cutting them they are even stiffer. I am looking for a pair of stock Z28 rear springs.
I am launching off a two step set at 6500rpm and spinning thur the 60’s, no bogging.
With a little softer spring rate it should hook sooner. I want a little spin but not that much.

We did add a large sway bar to help him even more but that just kept it launching more straight and has the same 60's....car is an LT1 and running 8.0s!!

stock shocks with an air bag in right rear . On 16 inch m/t drag radials pulls consistent 1.59-165 60 ft's. I have an aluminum flywheel now and leave at 6500 rpm's with very slight bog. I left at 7000 and had a little spin to a 1.65 60 ft. and ran 11.43 at 120.3 mph this past weekend.

i was 3600lbs the last time the car had nittos, that was the 03 thunder shootout, only thing the car was missing was spare tire, jack and back seat for the 1.74 60'

I cut low 1.5's on qa1's that are coilover. Next year I'm putting the stock springs back in the rear.
It rides to rough. And I want to get it a little higher. The coilovers are hard to crank up. Its a bitch.

Well, 1.67 on 16 inch 245x50x16 Nittos also. IF I recall Rodney, the year you won at Thunder with teh Nittos, did'nt I give some pointers as you were parked next to us. Steam rollers my ***. ALso, no sidewall.
I have about 10 pm's from people asking how I do it and always help people with the trick. Every single one has come back and pm'ed me telling me great results So it must not be just the tire
