Well since im on a mission this year to go 11's with stock internals, I want to know what you guys have planned to get into the next level and make it to the 11 sec club lol

There was a huge thread months ago that turned into caos.

Anyway I hit the 12.36 @ 107 mark last time with a 1.64 sixty foot, only suspension in the back was upr lower race control arms

I am now going to

Buy a one piece alum drive shaft
62mm T-body
Put my bmr anti roll bar kit on

nice! You mean 3550 lol

15" rims are awesome, I was launching mine off a 6100 limiter and just dumping the clutch and it hooked really well. Once I do cams it will make power past 6500 so I would lanch it even higher lol

I spin w/ dumping at 6K... have had my best luck holding 3000... flooring and dumping as it rises just before 5K...

I dont know why spin so much... set up or something isnt right... THAT's been my Everest this season :thud:

I have the relocating brackets sitting in a box but I have mixed emotions about putting them on lol... I might try them but first I will put the anti roll bar on. What gear are you running? 4.10's?

LOL ive hit a brick wall with 12-teens for now. My car is making more power and has almost gone 113 but my 60's have gone backwards and i guess stock 17" rims arent helping me either.

Do you mean you have them full stiff or full soft? If they are full stiff then you are knocking the crap out of the tire. Try setting them in the middle of their adjustment. What air pressure are you using in the tires?

Makes too much sense... I hope its something that easy (and stupid on my part).

Yes, full, nearly full firm... Ive tried from 20-8lbs... pullin' my friggin hair out w/ this...

What air pressure would you suggest with the middle setting?

Am I ok w/ full loose in front?


Matt: Thats 4.56's w/ 6 speed... not bad at all.

I go through traps at 6500 at top of 4th 1:1 w/ 27" tall tire between 112.5-114.5mph
