Here is my new best 60Ft and 1/8 mile. This run was on MT ET street 305/45-18 and those things are insane! They hook every time.

And yes I did red light, and yes I did break out, but considering the times I was happy overall. I hate bracket racing. :(

Here's mine:

60 ft/time: 2.117
Tire Brand/Type: M&H
Tire Size: 325/17 DR
Suspension Upgrades: BMR Trailing Arms
Drivetrain Upgrades: None
Automatic or Manual transmission: MT
Rear Gear Ratio: Stock

Track Info:
Music City Dragway - Nashville TN

This just goes to show what a difference a good quality set of trailing arms will make for you over the factory ones. Hopefully with some more BMR parts and a couple other changes we can get that 60ft time to drop even more.

I have BMR bushings and trailing arms and they make all the difference in the world. The trailing arms will help prevent wheel hop which will cause a world of hurt to your drive train.

Kyle is right ....

Guys, I'd like to say it was my awesome skill - or other - but this was the one add between 60's in the high 1.7(s) at the very best - to pulling a 1.65 and not really even hitting it hard. And I am a manual transmission so I am forced to think quite a bit when launching.

So from a cost / benefit standpoint it certainly is awesome upgrade here and I plan to do more once my $'s reload ....

I'm very impressed. Hopefully I don't go down hill from here ...

So it looks as though the same run that put in 27th for stock displacement and internal mods should put me at 8th for stock Pirelli's. 60' = 1.8743 L99 A6
