I went 1.51 with my old setup:

-26x11.5x15 ET Streets/15x10 Pro Stars
-Alston tubular LCA's (coming off)
-RT tq arm
-ES Poly tq arm mount in front
-1995 V6 rear springs
-Airlift airbag in right rear spring
-Stock rear shocks
-Hal front shocks, and springs
-!front swaybar
I ran the shocks on 3 and 3, ET Streets at 15psi, and cut a 1.53 and the track was not prepped at all.

I might pull my V6 springs my car might be squatting too much. I pulled the front tires up about 8-9 inches today...

2002 Setup
-26x11.5x15 ET Streets/15x10 Pro Stars
-Alston tubular LCA's
-RT tq arm
-ES Poly tq arm bushing
-Airlift airbag in right rear spring
-Hal shocks and springs in front
-Hal shocks and stock v8 springs in back
-Ditched front swaybar
-Hotchkis panhard bar

I also want to get the front tq arm mount off the tranny but we'll see how that goes.

I'd also like to get 27" Hoosiers too.

Stock without the front swaybar 11.84 @ 114.08 (1.61) including about 10 passes in the 1.5's including a best of 1.54.

I've since added BMR control arms/panhard.. also have a Strange 12-bolt w/3.73's. Went 1.56 to 1.59 on about 10 passes last week. On at least three passes it was carrying both front wheels <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
