Nah, us old school guys always take the top of the air cleaner off and turn it upside down.

I was actually thinking of doing that , but dont know how safe is to do that lol

Here is my slip . They said I had still spun even though I did a 1.7

I think we will be a good run; I need to get out there and see what I can do in "normal" weather.

Ran a 12.3 on all-season tires a few Saturdays ago

Thanks Bill, and thanks for Red's number

My car goes in the shop tom for meth, clutch, and to raise the front end back up.

Those nittos should help you out. I'd heat the **** out of them and run them at 16-20psi. I bet you go 11.0-11.5.

My neighbor hit 10's in his c6 on a 150 shot, bolt ons, stock auto. Also, did you see Larry running 11.3's with just bolt ons in his stock ls3 auto? I think he can come close.

Yeah with multiple 11.9s and 12.0s afterwards.

I have since added a few mods so hope to be in the 11.6 to 11.7 range if the weather is only "decent". The only power mod is an intake which is good for around 15 to the wheels.

when i get real tires i think i can get a low 11. all my times are with a 2.0 or 2.1 60'. and i don't floor it till 2nd gear because i don't spray 1st gear. my 12.0 @ 124 was 100 shot no tune. now i have a 125 shot and a tune. Also my car feels a lot better after the tune or i think it does anyway lol if i still only get a 2.0 or 2.1 60' i think i should get ~11.7 if the stars and the moon are in the right place maybe 11.6.

so what is it for every 10th you knock off your 60' its around 2 10ths on the other end?
