Best new MPH!
I went to RCR last night and managed to hit my best mph ever.
Here is the breakdown:
60' 1.9517 :rolleyes: (street tires)
330' 5.2569
1/8 et 7.91.81
1/8 mph 91.79
1000 et 10.1861
1/4 et 12.0077
1/4 mph 120.54mph
I ran half a dozen similiar #'s.
Just couldn't get hooked up from the line too well.
Oh well there is always next week. :D

Re: Best new MPH! (jw02)
I think I finally figured out what your secret is. Rhino Liner is those wheel wells. Had a blast last night. Lets do it again, and again, and again :lol:
That rubber lining is my "Mojo". :lol:
And I believe congratulations are due on your new best time of 12.5 @ 116mph. :cheers:

Re: Best new MPH! (mackeyred96)
put some tires on that car :cheers:
I agree!
I have a set of et streets on "16 centerline rims.
I just want to get into the 11's on street tires.
Once I achieve that then... :reddevil
:cheers: 120. is alot of MPH :cheers:
I'm really considering a set of 3:90's at this point.
I need at least a 1.7 '60 on the street tires before I'll be happy.
