I dont give a **** about the quarter mile. I just want something quick 0-100mph. I also have an aluminum flywheel thats going in. Motor is gonna rev like mad.
For tires I am going to get the 255 50 16 MT/ Radial. Its 26" tall. Should be enough for 40 60 85 110 shifting 6700rpms. I would rev to 7k but dont think the motor would last.

Nope. You won't even have to give it gas to leave a light. Just let out the clutch. A sticky tire with a 6k dump should pull the tires.
I am not so sure of this calculator or the lights at GLD. I have my light set at 6k and it was going off when going through the traps at 111. Now according to the calculator, I should be crossing at like 5700. So I am confused. I did bring down the pressure, but at that speed it would not matter because they will grow back I would think. Something is not right.

The calculator isnt 100% correct. Its 5mph off for 3rd gear. Says I should go 115mph but hit the rev limiter at 110mph.
Wheelies would be so cool. I am gonna take as much weight off the front possible. byebye powersteering and A/C. I dont use them anyways.

Man am I the only car in IL without headers? This sucks. I am so far behind in mods. That is OK, I usually can keep up with header cars just fine. Unless they only weigh like 3000 lbs with driver. One of these days I will catch up
