you dn't need slicks on an s2k, people pulling 1.4 60fts on drag radials

 

Nitto 555R's is all u need!!!!

when I was running 590whp the best I could muster on a 245 bf goodrich drag radial was a 1.95 spinning the hell out of frist/and 2nd yes I did a johnforce burnout and the tires were at 10 psi....
on that run I killed it at the 1/8th and coasted an 11.8 @ 120 because the soft top popped up on the drivers side (oops missed the latch lol)

-James

 

lol that must have been scary. I know a couple people who ran 10s on nitto 555rs with 1.4 60fts

 

lol everything was fine I hit 120mph and boom a huge gust of air hit me in the helmet I was like wtf, let off the gas and looked up it was messed up lol
I bet had I kept going it would have ripped the top off, on that run I was going against a mustang 68 he ended up running a 10.5 he got a 1.38 60 foot he had me by like 5 cars at the launch but by the 1/8th mile I was right beside him he must have been freaking out seeing a honda bout to whip him, too bad the top fubar'd I would have had him by about 1 car lenght at the end

on side note it is a good thing the top happened, on that run the pump for the air/water intercooler got clogged with a piece of the bag from the ice, basically I had no intercooler and with charge temps getting around 400 degress I dont think it would have been pretty at the end had I not shut it down lol

-James

 

I did the same damn thing but I kept going. I held the top down with one hand and drove with the other. I had to let go to shift. I didnt see it til the top of 3rd

 

mang you crazy I not taking my hand of the wheel at 120 + and dont want my right arm flying up in my view to hold it in meantime of shifting lol

Yah mine didnt happen till all of a sudden untill the near the top of 4th
-James

 

whats funny is that was my fastest time so far

 

lol crazy, i had no cage in mine so I was prepared to be booted off the track, I was also keeping that in the back of my mind incase anything happed lol

I not afriad to go all out anymore, 10 point cage, parachute setup, 5 point harness's I feel safe as can be lol
-James

 

I have the same stuff going in my car. I just dont want a parachute if I dont need it. I belive you have to pull the chute @ 150

 

best i went so far was rather shity, it was my first time ever running a car at the track, my sixty foot was horrible put it this way i coulda got hooked on fonics in the time of my sixty foot but i wont say it lol, but the mph was 127. and it was a 12.8

 

i believe chute was 135 pull at 150

We are going to be maxing out a gt4294r turbo and spraying n2o I am pretty sure with that kinda power we will be running a bit faster than 150 mph

-James

 

I assume that the car will be making more then 700rwhp. I hope you tub the car. You really cant put much more to the ground then that

 

yah you can put a good tire on
with a 15x10 with 8" backspace you can fit a 10.5" tread width wide slick on it (it has 1/4" clearance to inside of fender and to rear frame lol but it does fit, thank god the slicks get skinnier as you go not fatter

stick with soft springs, good wheelie bar, it will be ripping

to fit those wheels you have to go over to a shock that doesnt have a external resivor (koni yellows is what I chose)

after that it all bolts up but is super tight, the brake calipers only have like 1/8" clearance to the wheel hubs lol darn honda had to put huge brakes on s2k

-James

 

Belive me I know. You also want a shock with little valving under comp. But you want a good bit when it trys to recoil
