For that run it was 121.32mph. Best trap speed so far was 123.24mph. I have the back end of the run sorted, just having traction and driver mod issues at the start. Looking at going on a Sunday during winter and hoping that helps with the traction. Driver mod is another story.

With that data and power& speed you should be in mid 10'easily. All your time is lost in the 60ft should be looking at 1.5-1.6 60fts

Yeah have had a few issues. Broken couple of belts and fried the mantic twin plate. Dont think.ill get a 1.5 60ft with the manula but a 1.7 should see a 10.xx

All those guys running drag radials, did you have amplified axle tramp or did it just hook up and go? Ive never bolted up drag radials and gone to the strip to get the most out of my car.

WOW!! some really impressive mph.
Ive been told that Nitto NT555R will help your 60ft

Have never had axle tramp on street tyres or ET's.
Manuals seem to attract it more but stock springs in the rear usually cure it

If you're serious about drag racing then use the right tyre for the purpose. Can get street radials up to 20" so there's no point messing around with circuit tyres IMO.
