Well after finally making out to the track yesterday after about a year of not racing I made it to yellow belly (spelling) and ran the stang a couple of times!:o ....times were not what I expected!:mad:
1st run: I ran an impressive 10.1!:rolleyes:
2nd run: 9.1
3rd run 9.0
and after that I decided not to let her run again!:(
I use to run 8.70's-8.80's myself before with less mods than I have now! What gives?....do tire size make a difference? I ran with some 245/45 17 nittos this time and before I was running some 275/45's 17's!...with this small ones this time around..I was spinning my ass off at 3k so I had to take it down to 2.5k! So I think it's a tire problem? Anyone have some feedback on this?

Go to redine, denton or ennis and get some legitimate track times. Look at the 60 foot times and mph to compare to your old runs. Tires make all the difference in the world in 1/8 mile! A tenth difference in the 60 foot will be near 2 tenths in the 1/8 ET. Let me know when you're going to the trackGO TO REDLINE!!!

I can't even think about drag radials at yello belly.I doubt they gave you a sixty ft time,but it was probably 2.3,2.4,go to redline,denton or kennedale.!

They give 60 foots. I have more fun at Yellow Belly than any other tracks, but I always run a tenth or two slower their.
