I posted this back in April after it happend. But since there has been alot of people talking about no one posting the slips, i will post one from Flints run.

This is Flints run w/his 01 SC CLS...it a warm night, and he also had 19" lowenhart BR5's on the car. Also just the axleback CT exhaust at the time, now he has the full setup. So on a cold day with better traction smaller wheels and now w/the b pipe he should be able to get his time lower.

 

what kinda car was in the right lane? Nice R/T. 13.6 isn't bad w/ 19's on.

 

I cant remember for sure, it was a modded camaro or mustang i think. Flint will remember

 

Sweet.

Any problems with the SC on an Auto?

 

nice time. with light rims and his improved setup i think he can shave it off down to 13.3 or so.. technican at V/R said that with their stage II transmission, with their updated torque converter, its possible to shave up to .5 on the quarter mile with the s/c. if you got an auto with s/c that might be something to consider. that can put you into the high 12's which is kick ass

 

The other car was a modded mustang around a 1990-1993. Sucked running a 13.67 and still losing to the guy in the other lane. I am waiting for the weather to cool down some before I hit the track. I will be running with the stock 17's and sumi HTR+ tires. I am looking for 13.5x.

 

Dude get Nitto 555R Drag radials - Sumi traction sucks.

 

Hate to spent the money on dedicated rims/tires for the track a few times a year.

 

Yeah I remember him posting that run. An amazing time considering what he was riding on.

 

weve all seen that before

we are all waiting for a 6 speed s/c slip

 

Whats the guess for the 6 speed 13.0?

 

13.26 is what i would guess.

 

that's why you get cheater slicks lik ethe nitto's, run them all year round

 

how much are the nitto's? thinking about putting them on my stock 17's

 

all depends on traction

 

damn s/c and exhaust and it pulled that kind of time with the 19's? thats a great time.

 

Matt do you use DR's ?

I have heard concern of DR's and our slushies, people not wanting to use them b/c conern of blowing a tranny.

 

i've never run on anything but my street tires.


i could run 12's right now on slicks. probably for only a run or 2 though.

 

matt u can prolly go 12.9 on street tires on a cool day
