last friday my husband finally finished his car and decided to go to the drag strip to "test her out".....little did he know when me and my girlfriends were riding behind him on the way there, we decided to run the g

Now after nearly pissing in my pants on the first run (b/c i was nervous). I have decided to get either drag radials or slicks for the next runs...

 

I kid I kid


Good runs. For a girl and for a first time those are some good numbers.

 

what's the elevation, temperature and practice makes perfect.

 

u dont neeeeeeed slicks, just feather the clutch at take off with drag radials, but with slicks would be the best. low 8's sound about right with drag radials, u might break 7's if u have slicks, but i highly doubt it.

 

its an auto

 

I dont do 1/8th so I have no idea..I guess it would be pretty damn fast.

 

what would that be in the 1/4?

 

funny, how did your husband trap 10 more mph in the 1/8th in an auto???


95 mph is nasty, that car is pretty fast, you should get it to the 1/4 mile on some good tires.

that car would go mid 11s if he really trapped 95 there, i would like to see some time slips

 

no no....he ran 95 mhp at 8.2 in his hatchback (500+ hp) not in my car lol

you all are funny

 

oh, lol, well then you need some more power!!!


my all motor Z traps 90 in the 1/8th,

knoxville huh?? i lived in sevierville for about 5 years a few years ago, my whole family is still there, i didnt know there were any fast Gs there, congrats!!

 

yea, the probem was i counldnt get any traction at the line on street tires (go figure eh?) so we are getting slicks for her - should be here soon i hope

mayhem - u headed up for zdayz?

 

Tennessee G's FTW

 

Damn , 95 mph in an 1/8??

 

yup, i will be at z dayz for sure...


see you there!!
