Last Go 'Round for the Year

[GTAmuscle]

Pulled the trigger on some Dark Stars last week, got the Mickey Thompson rubber put on and went out for a little TNT on Sunday. Was looking for good air and improvement over my old crappy NT555R's. Extremely happy about the results and hope to do torque converter before I save up for the Paxton and forged motor next year.
DA was floating around -1000 all morning.
First time in the 12's and hoping for 10's someday...
Car #52 both in the right lane. Left lane gave me some trouble the first two runs.

Good time man and they link. Good on there

What were you launching at? Was the track prepped? I would think with 4.10 and MT DRs you could get into the 1.6x 60' range and get the ETs down mid-low 12
Good runs!

It's a stock converter automatic so I'm launching at 2k. Really want to get a triple disc for next year so I can lower those 60' to a 1.6x.

Ahhh yes converter would help TONS

Was having problems with traction after switching to the 4.10's so I dialed in the suspension and switched rubber before going for the torque converter.

Great numbers. My 05 auto has 4.10 and now with the kenne bell I no longer have first, second, and sometimes third gears. I have to get some sticky tires, I want to get into the 11's.

With the auto in our cars I'm kind of scared of going big power with sticky tires. They have a tendency to break input shafts with big power and good traction.

When I do my forged motor and paxton I'll probably have to think about a 4R70 or similar in order to prevent tranny problems.
