I took a look at the best LS4 times, and many people arr running less than 2.0 in the 60' mark. What tires are people running? How are you getting these great 60' times?

A lot of it has to do with track prep also. Wider tires always help.

I get mediocre 60 foots, mid 2.2 average, best of a 2.20 with this car.

i got a 2.275 60' with 35psi in the stock tires. so next time im gonna drop to like 20psi and try that out.

CenTexSS / Panthwe427 - What were your 1/4 mile times?

Panther427

well with that 6o' i messed up the 1-2 shift, and i live up at alltitude but i ran 15.87 @87.96mph w/2.275 60 foot. My best run that night was 15.279@91.88mph w/ 2.372 60 foot. Also when i go back next time im gonna set rear tire air preasure at max. Remove Drivers side healight

14.2 @ 98mph, and I had 32psi in the tires.

Panther427

my tires were like set at cold 35psi but after the drive down there psi was like 38-40 on my good 60' but track prep is reallly good at my track.

I wish my local track had good prepping. It's nice once in a while, but not often.

Should have givin us a 6 speed with some 3.29s or 3.42s f***dod. This car would have been even faster. I mean a 4 cylinder Malibu can get a 6 spd. Maybe I will be the first guy to try to have one built or do some kind of conversion.

I was a lil jealous when I saw six speed auto Malibus. Even a five speed and shorter gearing would have been good for us, then we'd be getting 30mpg highway easy with DOD/AFM.

My best 60ft was 2.18, on stock GY's. Ended up running 13.85 that day.

Panther427

it seems the SS cars do better at the strip then the GXP cars stock

radorider03

I only use the raptors at the track most of the time and they grip well. I left my other wheels on a buddy's trailer last weekend and have been running the rikens for about a week and i like them alot. A good cheap performer

I figure a good set of tires will help my 60' times and I've been told that with our cars, every .1 in the 60' is worth .2 in the 1/4. I can't seem to find drag radials or something similar for the stock 18" rims.....
