Get that 60' down and keep the traction then welcome to the 11s.

That's a bad ride! Did you paint the side markers in front?

I feel for your 4.10 ring gear when you put the stickys on though.....

Yes, I'm well aware of that. I have 4.10s in the rear.

Thanks! And it's VHT niteshades on my front markers. Piece of cake to make them look like that, just remove 'em, spray 'em, and reinstall 'em

Nice first runs. With a better 60ft. and the 200 shot, hold on to your shorts.

I've got some work to do this week, a buddy of mine is gonna weld my subframe connectors and LCA relocation brackets in. I'm gonna remove my front sway bar, and I'm gonna practice my launching and shifting (my car has been apart for two years so I'm a little rusty)....Then I'm gonna bolt up my M/T's and head for the track next sunday. Assuming my 10 bolt stays together, I'm hoping to break 11s.....I'll be sure to post up the results in this thread.

Going off of my mph, I figure a 1.75-1.80 60' should net me an 11.9xx....and I think my 10 bolt should be capable of holding a 1.75 without grenading....So I'm not planning to just go out and drop the clutch at 5k or anything like that.

Anyone got any helpful suggestions?

"Just ignore what the power curve is and shift it high high!"

If you saw the torque/power curves for this combination you might revise your thinking.

The PCM puts a limit on how high.
