So where do I stand?

My N/A 60' with a 26x10.5x15 slick is 1.61 and with a 255/50/16 drag radial is a 1.63.

Mediocre huh? Nice 1.68. lol. I did that on a old BFG DR with 320rwhp over 10yrs ago. Hell I went 1.74 on a 17" Nitto with 298rwhp at full weight. If it's mediocre its better than you and most others.

No matter what tire is on the rim you still have to account on how it reacts to the power and how the chassis reacts.

For example, I bet my bottom dollar you don't know that a slick can get away with a lower AS and longer IC with the proper shock adjustments yet on a DR a higher AS is needed and a DA shock will help hold the hit by having a higher extension setting.

Nah, you didn't. you'd rather troll. Its what you do.

Yea dude....you can pull some mechanical bite outta the car when you run a tire with more traction.

Do you adjust your extension setting by twisting on the *** at the end of your *****?

Or are you talking about rebound here?

Seems to me you may be talking about rebound while jacking off.

You're a ****** rocket scientists

And even more unlikely on a dr like alot of those cars are.
No ss sra cars in the 9's? Here's one example from a quick Google search. Maybe they are the first to do it?

http://www.mustangandfords.com/how-t...n-mods-part-5/

After a short cooldown, I headed back and repeated, this time it recorded a sick 1.31 60-foot time and blasted into the 9s with a 9.86/138 mph pass! What’s most amazing is that the suspension is 100-percent stock, right down to the factory anti-roll bars.

On a radial too.

Was or is? If you are truly on stock LCA, torque arms and stock bushings, thats impressive. My car wheel hopped like crazy when it was stock.

Was then and the rear still is.

My car only has around 27k miles on it so I'm sure that helps

Nathans suspension was stock minus front bar too.

A good upgrade for these cars are 1le rear bushings. And if the car is a auto find a m6 tq arm. The m6 tq arm is reinforced
