Default Perris This Friday Night...

Decided to Break down and ride the 1/8th mile again. Running outta 1/4 mile tracks, things start to get good, then WHAM race is over with that 1/8th. Auto's have the big advantage, and FI/Nitrous doesnt really help when you have 20 ft of breaking distance at the end of the track. Oh well, I guess i'm being a CRYBABY again. I think I just always want the best, and settle for what I can get. Anyways I'll be bringing out my almighty goat which should run a 9.5 because I cant drive independant rear suspension cars for some reason.

Posted up on LS2gto.com, we should have a good turn out.

um i ran 8.42 at 92.8 spinning the whole way down the track when I was cam-only w/ shorties putting down like 340 rwhp?

now i have heads/longtubes and if I have a sticky tire I'm sure 7s aren't far off. lol what's an 8 flat, like 12.20s in the 1/4? its all in the traction dude, I might not have an evo with magic AWD but I know how to drive my 12 year old car

with good traction, and the motor not bogging from too much traction, you should get 7's, but remember you race it when it was cooler out, its alot hotter being its summer, and even at night the DA is still pretty high

look at the other evo drivers and let me know how many are in the sub 1.5 60 ft's

you;ll see most are in the 1.8-1.6 range. i can drive me car and i highly doubt you'll run 7's travie wasn't able to run 7's on the motor and that was on a 383.

funny thing is i can run my times in a full weight car and a measly 395whp and 387tq (stock internals, cams, head, injectors and manifold)
