Nice deal on the wheels and tires.............



I don't see anyone breaking into the 12's with full bolt-ons. Sorry. Just speaking what I feel. Good luck to anyone that can pull it off, but someone is going to need to find another 4 tenths minimum from the person at the top. That equates to another 40 HP. or 400 lb. reduction or some combination of both.

Yea I don't see anyone breaking 12s with just bolt ons either. Might need a cam if those even pan out. That really is a good deal. The wheels will make a difference because of the massive weight difference

My dad (he's curious) and I have two questions. One: what's the best 60' for bolt ons? Two: how many cars on the bolt on list run a aftermarket torque converter?

It just so happens I have the 60' times on a spreadsheet on my computer for the top ten bolt-on list. I will post a picture of it below. (by the way I just noticed that I have that information on the top ten list too -- post # 3) picture below too.

As for torque converters, I do not think anyone on the top ten list is running one at the moment. The man at the top of the list tried one out a couple years back but never felt he saw any improvements with it installed.

AWESOME job, I will add it to the list later today.

I see this use to be the Houston Raceway Park.

Track elevation of 38 feet. And with that cold air you had GREAT DA.

What time was that pass so that I can get a close to accurate DA for you.

Imagine how could you would have done with a good 60'. There was room for another 0.3 at the big end.

Again CONGRATS, that is damn impressive.

DA for your run was a low -1585, that certainly helped.

That low of a DA definitely helped you!!!

And like Mike said, you should be able to get that 60' down to a 2.0 or even a 1.9 and knock a couple tenths off your ET...

nice job!

You should worry about the DA, colder the better. .....

And with that track elevation of only 38 feet you can run at 50+ degrees and still have negative DA. Traction and negative DA now that is a plus.

Where I race I need temp under 45 degrees to see any negative DA. And at those temps, we start to lose traction.

As for the 1/8 mile list, I spent some time updating that yesterday. I will check on it to make sure it is OK. I have had it not take in the past after an update.


UPDATE: I see what happened. I did a copy and past of your information to the correct spot, but forgot to update the times........

nice job!

Be sure to check out the new top ten list, you have move to Honorary Mention. I could not see leaving you behind as you were so instrumental in getting me involved and helping so many others with our V6's.
