This is what it's all about. I remember my first time running a car down the track, and remember my Dad taking me to a track the first time(can you say Garlits, Prudhomme, Muldowney, McEwen?)

Ok, got rid of my 18's at 500 miles and put RS/SS 20" rims on with new Pirelli tires. the 18's would probably have had a better E.T

Not sure about that. Both the stock 18 steelies and the stock 20s weigh about the same. Plus the 20s have a stickier tire.

True. The only lighter and more advantageous stock rims you can get are the 23lb 1LT rims. The special 19 inch rims are also slightly lighter than the 20's and 18's.

Sorry but if you look at the best quarter times the Pirellis hook better than the BFG's. Has anyone actually measured the tire diameters ?

Diameters are the same. Width of the BFG's are like a skinny truck tire, though.

+1 pirellis are way better. The lighter weight of the 1lt 18s with improve trap speed though. Going from my 20s to 18s + an intake I went from trapping 97 to 101.5.

Nice run but I feel like a bolt on V6 should be deep into the 12s with a 100 shot. Any chance you can throw that into a DA calculator?

105 mph should be good for 12s, auto or manual?

Nice run. I'm guessing you aren't spraying right out of the hole? At what RPMs are you spraying?
