Default Another New Best!!!

Got some more seat time with the E.T. Streets.

Car is a 03 Z06 w/ Vararam, Kooks 1 7/8 headers, borla, textrailia, DTE half shafts, and E.T. streets.

60'
1.74
1/8
7.65 @ 92.43
1/4
11.87 @ 116.31

Best 60' of the day was a 1.68 and a few 1.69's, but it started getting warmer so car ran 11.90's.

Well, think my window switch or solenoid crapped out on me. Tried to spray and nothing happened. Going to put my heads/cam set up on and redo the kit. Hope that fixes it.

Sorry to rain on your parade, but people here should know the whole truth about this guy. He was born with a certain deformity, his right foot weighs about 100lbs and he can leg press over 5000lbs, thus enabling him to push the throttle 4 to 5 inches below the floor board. This is true, other locals have seen it and can confirm this.

Congrats on the ET and trap speed.

LMAO....funny stuff Dan.

Kurtomac,
I run the stock wheel studs. They work fine for me. I need to get some GTO fronts. Where is a good place to get them at?

I didn't know the GTO spares made great fronts. Is that the best fronts to get? And what size tires to put on those GTO spares?

They are probably not "the best" but they work and are the cheapest! The tires are like 17 x 4.5" I believe..

No spacer is needed but some say it looks better with a 2" spacer. I ran mine last year without...they just sit inside the wheel well without one. Buy them first and then decide on spacer depending on looks!
