didn't you say it had a 408 with some pretty worked heads on it? I'm guessing you haven't tuned it yet? That MPH seems extremely low for that motor and such a light car

It is tuned, the issue is I am running a nitto 555r that is only 245 wide (street tire)
I can not get to full throttle till 1/8 mile.

something is very wrong with your suspension then! I've hit 1.39 60' on a 245/50/16 555r... what kind of power did it put down?

he put down about 410rwhp. He's on bone stock rear suspension with that small drag radial. He simply cant launch hard at all or it just blows the tires off.
