Those times are very similar to mine, as well as the mods. I have had a high of 112 mph and my best 60' time is 2.05 on street tires. My car is running very rich at the moment and I will be getting it dialed in on the dyno with a new chip burnt in the next few weeks. I think those times are about right with your mods... :cheers:

Mike

gears, sounds like your mph and even et's on street tires are pretty decent. 112+ is just about right for 350 rwhp (though , if you now have headers you should be making more). I would be willing to bet your car has 113 in it . According to your runs , each was better than the last and with more traction, better 60 ft times and maybe a little better weather or something, you will be in the mid 12's@113.

Same for your car luvmy92, with right at 350 rwhp 112+ is right in there.

Great to see roughly how my car should run with a Hot Cam in it (and about 350 rwhp), with both of you in the same ballpark.

Of course alot of this depends on how much your cars weighed (race weight with you in it) as well as how much power you have......either of you guys know what your rides weighed when you got those times?? :seeya

Shriker,I weighed my car some time ago,and with a almost full tank of gas,it was 3240 or so without me in it.When I raced today,it had about 1/2 tank of gas,and I weigh 200,so roughly 3400 or so.
