Anbody going to the street warriorz? May 30th

BATTLE!!!!!!!!

OK, it sounds like a several Terminator Cobras have jumped into this match up. I guess if I am going to lose a race there are worse cars to lose to, ie. turbocharged Z28's or worse yet turbocharged rice-rockets!

Hey man, did you ever get your WOT box? If so, how do you like it? I'm loving mine!! I'm going to be working on launching off the 2 step once I get my suspension and everything worked out. I'm sure it's going to be a rush launching in boost, and then a split second later the nitrous hits....i may have to step up to a 28" tall tire.

Not yet. Its on the list of toys. So much to do and not enough time or money.

but i thought you were wipping your ass with 20's

Ok here is a vid that I made real quick of some of my runs. It was hot and there was no traction due to the fwd cars carrying a ton of water all the way to the start line. My best 60' is a 2.3. Maybe with some drag radials I can bring that down.

I am running Sumitomo HTZRII 275s in the back. When the start line wasn't wet I was getting a lot better traction. I have hit almost a 2.0 before in these tires. I am wanting in the 1.6 to 1.9 range with some different tires.

Not until I get my tax credit from Obama. Its on its way though, so shouldn't be long.

Joshua,
I was running 1.7's in the 60 ft the other night with my MT E/T Streets (that's with the stock 3.31 gears). To get below 2.0 in the 60 ft. you will definitely need at least a drag radial.

I would go with a dedicated E.T. Street or full slick. They are as cheap as good drag radials and work much better at the track than a drag radial.

Yeah now all I need is some rims to mount them on. I think I will go with some suspension and go fast mods for now. Then go with the slicks.

tires are you best mod like mitch said et street or slick

You need Drag Radials bad. Those are some horrible times

dont sugar coat it justin

Thanks justin...

Hey, I was running 13.7 with street tires and then 13.2 with drag radials and hoping with this new tune from brenspeed i will hit 12's but with out delete plates i dont know.

you think delete plates make much diff

Hey I was running faster than the new camaro. lol Yeah I still have the 3.31 gears too though. After gears, headers, cams, and heads I am going to get slicks or radials.

Nice runs Josh! Ya a set of DRs would do wonders. But still nice runs.

et streets or slicks are way better

Not only are they better, they last alot longer. I've had my E.T. Streets for 2 seasons and they still have life left on 'em. I had drag radials that I would drive around on everyday and could only get 12k miles out of them. I'm a big fan of a dedicated strip only setup.

what kind of DR's were they?

After watching lance launch off of those et streets, I think i might go with those, plus a lot of people like them.

Do it josh, Do it
