Made a few Drag radial passes last night on 235/60/15 MT's
Well I made my first pass on slicks and low boost and found out that my lenso is bent and I have no idea how it happened. That was a 11.3@119mph. I lifted cause the car wasnt going straight and floating around because of the wheel. I tried one more time on slicks because I thought it might be a air presure issue which it wasn't and I lifted very early and went 12.2@103mph again on low boost.
I have never run this car on drag radials but since they are my daily drivers I figured I would give it a shot. They are 235/60/15 MT ET street radials.
First pass was low boost(17psi) in 1st and 2nd and 25psi in 3rd and 4th. 2.1 60ft and went 12.1@127mph.
On the next pass I was a bit more comfortable and pulled a 1.9 60ft and went 11.9@125mph missing 3rd gear pretty bad. I dont have the time slips with me but if anyone want the break down Ill try to get them posted up tonight or tomorrow.
I have the vids but they arent the best quality so here they are:
Bent slick pass:

First drag radial pass with the Bolisbuilt S2000 in the other lane:

what power are you making. 583 like you have in your sig? Just trying to get a feel for how well those radials hook. Looks like it has lots of potential in it.
1st and 2nd Im making somewhere in the 435 -445 range I would guess. 3rd and 4th were at 25psi. I really didnt air the tires down that much. They were still at about 20psi so I think it would go faster with lower presure and obviously not missing 3rd gear.
