What size tire do you have out back??

Thanks, the tires are Goodyear Eagle F1's 245/45/19 all around.

Wow! you guys continue to impress. The front page will send a few lookers to the V6 threads...congratulations.

Great Job!

If you could hit a 1.8 60ft or better you would be mid-low 13's. Every tenth you can take out of your 60ft is good for two tenths in the 1/4.

Thanks again to all. I'm pleased to represent a little for the V6 community. We have many awesome V6'ers here who share info and are passionate about the LLT. I'm thrilled to be a part of it.

Now when someone asks me why I got the 6, I hand them the time slip (laminated of course) and then it's all good.

Damn, 1.8 60ft? Out of my league but I'm hoping to get a little closer to 2.a little.

agreed... 1.8 maybe tough... but with some practice you should be able to consistently pull a 2.0....

psh, I wish I could get out of 2.2x... lol

1.8 would be easy with some sticky tires out back.

KMPrenger · 04-07-2010, 01:33 PM

Well its already been shown that a 2.0 (or at least a very close 2.0) 60 can be done with the V6....so yes I'm betting with some sticky drags on the rear you could possibly shave even a few tenths off that run!

bmwdon · 04-07-2010, 02:13 PM

unless you're spinning your tires (no VHT on track)...I don't see how stickier tires is going to help out. You need some torque to get your 60' times down, so more hp/torque from the engine, shorter gears would improve torque put down, or with DR's you are decreasing your wheel diameter, that would effectively put down more torque to the ground and help out some.

my first run on stock tires with the srt challenger I had a 1.8 60', I was the first in that lane for the day, I've never driven across that much vht before in my life, the noise coming from the car was comical. The first time I ever drove across that stuff I thought I broke the car, even this time I cringed.

My point is, unless you're making enough power to spin the tires on a prepped track, I don't see a need for DR's.

I think the biggest help would come from a gear change. Richmond sells a 3.55 kit.

I'm saying I should be able to match scrming's, wulf's and mrray's 60' @ just over 2.

I'm going to keep on tryin'

bmwdon · 04-07-2010, 03:14 PM

I bet a small shot of nitrous could get you up and out of the hole a bit better
