Winnar.

 

13.13 @ 114.68 with a 2.1 60'

I know the 60' sucks, but my 2 step was set too low and nobody had a laptop to be able to change it

any type of gear based boost or just good driving lol ?[

 

3psi wg springs in each gate, 90 psi of co2 line pressure, NLR AMS-1000 boost controller and 100 passes on the set-up. Launched out of vtec, no boost and had the tune really soft so the tires didnt spin much.

 

very impressive... I am on that tire and did not think you could possibly go that fast on it.

 

12.2 @119.. 2.08 60 foot.. small 205/45/15 nitto extremes

12.92@117 on 225-50-15 bfg's with a horrible alignment completely out of spec. Have a buddy who just ran 11.40s@132-135 with his type r turbo on 225/50/15 bfgs about 3 weeks ago

 

12.5@120 with 2.17 60 foot on bfg's

 

If I knew what i know now, i probably could have went 10.7~10.8 on the same tires with the same set-up. That was 3 seasons ago. The only thing that sucks about drag radials is how much drivetrain parts you break. We consistently broke axles until we upgraded to DSS 5.9's, then would break pretty much every gear/final drive. Probably broke 15+ gear sets that season.

 

and what has broke since slicks?? its because the drag radilas dont have the sidewall flex that the slick have

 

Radials dont flex on the sidewalls, so you get nasty wheelhop. It just kills anything in the drivetrain. Even with solid mounts, pro-am traction bars and good suspension you cannot get rid of radial wheel hop.

 

I managed to pull a 11.3 @ 130mph on 205/50-14 Nitto dr's with my vitara setup about a year ago.

This was at ~390whp and 2200lbs.

 

I went 12.1@119 on 205/50/15 BFG's shifting into 5th

 

I went 11.30 @ 140mph on bfg 235x60x15s

 

10.98@137 225 50 bfg

 

11.1 @ 133 on 225 BFG's 2006
10.7 @ 145 on 235 M&H bias ply's 2007
10.4 @ 146 on 26" M/T ET Street's 2008

 

you win

 

Not really its alot of tire. I think with my current set up on a real drag radail. I could go deep in to the 10's @ 150+.

 

you still have everybody in MPH

 

2005 season:

11.58@127
225 bfg

84mm Lsvtec @ 10psi

 

11.9@120 mph

k20 powered eg

ipsk2's
dtr header
100shot direct port.

225 bfg radial

That was a few years ago, probably could have gone faster with some more seat time and playing with the nitrous setup

ET streets and M&H's are bias ply tires, so not a radial. They're a slick with a groove cut in them to get them DOT approved.
