The key to traction on a Street night is good tires!

ET Streets DOT slicks work wonders.... or ET Drags if you want the full slick!

I got into the 1.59's the last Friday I was up there...


Brent got another C5...?? I swore he was going to change direction this time around...

I was there running my Silver BMW 540...gunmetal wheels and tint...saw all of you guys there. Cars sounded and looked great!

The track really went away after about 7-7:15...I couldn't spin before then but after that it got a little slick.

I saw you get on your brakes at the finish line and get squirrely...that must have been scary.

haha yeah, it went through 4th spinning the tires....i stopped at the end of the track to tell them to clean it and then they shut down to dry it up. I think it was coolant but it was in the left groove

Yeah, what 98hardtopSS said. It's an auto with stock 3.23's. I have a lid, sub-frame connectors, lca relocation brackets. Have Eagles RSA's on right now (BBOOO) With just the lid my best was a 13.2 (that was last september, in good air w/ a 2.1 60 ft @106.5 mph) Wednesday my best was 13.313 @ 105 w\ 2.08 60 ft. I ran 3 13.3's (13.313, 13.316, 13.393) in the right lane. I ran one 13.9 in the left spinning first and second (2.4 60 ft.)

Let me know the next time you are heading up 98hardtopSS, I prob won't be running til I get my tc and some tires on in the near future. I was up there tonight with my cousin. He has some serious traction issues. Prob be seeing you guys at the Slowhawk open house tomorrow.
