Default Whats the fastest FI ET record on 17inDRs?

F-body or Vette? 6sp and auto times? What brand and size drag radial was used i.e. Nitto, BFG, MT? What was the motor/FI setup? How much power did it make?
Thanks for any input and hope this hasnt been asked before but im just curious.

i think mightymouse ran some low 11's on 18" rims, he might have done a high ten last year, but i cant remember off the top of my head.
2000ws6 (cant rember his screen name exactly) convertable with a vortech, 408, ran some low 11's on his 17" rims and nittos.

I have done a 1.67 sec 60' on BFG 315 17's @ 3850 lbs. They are good for 1.5 something 60' times for sure. I should be doing it later this year.

All that really matters for measurment of how good the tire is, is the 60' time. What are you guys doing for 60'.

I went 11.24 on 17" BFG drag radials. The car had a 10 in it but my rev limiter was pulled back if i would have had valve springs and shifted at 6500 I would have hit a 10.8/10.9 in a full weight (no weight reduction) A4 SS.

I know a local guy that went 11.doh @ 127 in his Vette on 17s. That's his fastest posted time.

Nitrous car, stock bottom end.

i went a 1.61, the only suspension i have is lca's. I'm quite sure the car can pull a 1.5. Show's how good those BFG's are. I'm sure the M/T's are equal if not a little better. When my bottom end is done (forged) I'll be going for 10's, I don't see a problem doing it either. Going on radials is fun!
