Logged some 60-130 pulls with my dragy. Got some wheel spin top of 3rd gear so I will go out and try again. But if you have dragy would be cool to see what everyone else’s cars are doing

I like it the best to compare nitrous tuneup changes or any other modifications to the car. Like you said, tire size change to see what is quicker. Hell, even tire compound.

Yea definitely. Also it makes me more consistent shifting the car. Easy to spot when you shift slow

Looks pretty cool, I'll have to give it a try when I get my car back from A&A. I anticipate 60-130 time not looking very impressive with 4.10s though. That's 2 shifts for me lol

I'll have to try it with both 27s and 28s, but both are still going to make me shift twice to hit 130

Are you still running unmodified fender liners with 28s? My 27s are already rubbing when one side gets compressed (backing on to street from driveway). Was hoping I could set the height perfect for both sets of wheels/tires, but looks like I'm going to have raise it up more than I want to unless I feel like removing the liners completely (which I don't want to do because the Racetronix wiring is under the liner in front of the driver rear wheel).

my 28s pretty much shaved the liners down in areas they rubbed. I set ride height high but at high speed the car will still squat down. Just said screw it.

Bummer. I'll probably put them on, let them rub a little, and modify the areas they touch. Saw a guy that did that previously. Was just hoping for less of a project haha

I got one last summer. I really like it, but it would be better if I was on drag tires and on a track. With street tires I see a lot of spin if I start from a stop.....But, its is fun. I am hoping to get lucky and get a decent launch...

I've ran a few 6.0's in my car with 2 shifts (starting at 40 in 2nd racing someone). I'll post up the screenshot in a bit. Need to go out and get some new ones with my radials and starting in 3rd.

Here's my 6.0's I mentioned above. Slowwwww shifts lol I was starting to have some clutch issues that day and took out a synchro so I was trying to baby it to get it through the event. Car should go pretty deep into the 5's starting in 3rd with the fresh clutch! We will see.

That seems about right. Mine makes 790/780. 1200-1300whp is more in the mid-high 3's territory. We have a lot of dragy data on the GTR's we build to suggest that.
