new personal best

Did alittle better this time at the track....went 9.37 @ 75.7 on street tires and no nitrous. Not great in comparison to some of you guys, but I'm on my way to 8.9's on motor

Not too shabby.


Going getting an 8.9 1/8th time isn't going to be easy though. an 8.9 1/8th mile is a 13 second/low 14 second pass in the 1/4. 9.37 is 14.5-14.7 in the 1/4 so you've got your work cut out for ya. Good luck bro. It can certainly be done.

I think I could make it running my 60 shot, but I haven't had a chance to run at the track since I got the issues fixed, but we will see...

8.9 N/A on street tires is pretty damn hard hard to do with a 3.0. That is a 13.8, which is pretty much the limit for street tires and N/A.

Is it possible to go 8.9's or 9.0's NA? I mean, even with the 00vi and the JWT ECU...can it be done? I don't have headers, but from everything I've read, if you had the y, you pretty much have all the benefit you can get

I ran 8.995 on my 13.83 run. Krismax probably had an 8.99 or 8.98 or so on his 13.82, 96sleeper was probably right in the area too, maybe 8.98 to 9.03 or something, same with speedemn, and maybe dandymax as well. But those are the only cars I can think of that would have a shot at pulling an 8.9x in an NA 3.0 without slicks... so it's pretty rare.

No different than anyone else, VI, ECU and boltons. You just have to be able to drive really well and have a good track and good weather conditions.
