^Stock 18" wheels with worn out BFG KDW IIs.

The nearest 1/4 mile track is 1.5hr away. The 1/8th is 15 minutes from work and 3 minutes away from my brother's house. Thus why I really only go there.

Ok thanks
I will try with 18
Give you my time as soon as the track open
And hope they spray the track with a lot of glue

With my sled last year they used to spray it only for the weekend
But cant make many runs on weekend due to nhra race

^^you did pretty good. Your 60 foot times were excellent. Did you lighten up your load or was it all from just brake torque?

^How cool was it that day? I'd love to be able to break into the 1.9xx 60 ft; but I stage so shallow. I'll need to double-bulb to help me get into the 1.9s.

22 celcius at night

I did 5 runs
All other run were 2.00 and one 2.01 at the 60 foot.

The car was regular like a clock.
Worst run was 13.54 at 102 mph

I need to go back and try my 1/4 mile times again but this time, I'm on michelin super sport. I spin out so moderately when I get off the line, causing my 60 foot times in the 2.2-2.3s.
