went to 1/8 mile track tonight. First time with the v2, 2.87 pulley. I only see 9.5 psi on the gauge tho, (maybe my muffler robbing psi?) anyways, its much faster than before lol. So much i have to completely relearn to launch, and/or invest in traction, cuz street tires aint cutting it. I have a run on camera where i was spinning at the finish line. Anyways, full trim, fully loaded SE, didnt even remove the subs this time. Tires are 225/45 BFG Gforce T/A on g35 coupe 17s.

2 runs similar to this
60 foot: 2.412
330: 6.201
1/8: 9.253
mph: 82.56

2 runs similar to this
2.526
7.194
10.401
79.39

whatcha think? Im not far behind Sparks03's trap where he runs low 13, but of course hes n/a so its apples to oranges, but still has me confident.

 

with those 60's you are probably still in the low very 14's to high 13's.

When I had my 95 n/a my best 1/8th was
~8.9x @ ~79mph w/ a 2.0x 60'. That ended up netting me 13.8 @100. I need to find my slips from my supercharged car at Maxus I know I had some bad 60's there, that would probably give you a better idea of what it would look like in, I'll try to find them.

 

^ sounds about right.

 

You need to work on your 60' bad! lol

Trap speed is decent though.

 

heck i know, when i was n/a i pulled consistent 2.2 on street tires, i pulled a 2.19 once, but always in the 2.2 range. this is just different, so much harder. but yeah, im definitely interested in the trap speed. i think it can improve from here also. just gotta relearn to launch this thing again.

 

Man unbolt your Y-pipe and get traction! I'm going to bet you have to fix your tune and gain 3-4mph trap without that 2.5" exhaust choking it up. Maybe get a cutout or a full 3" as a long term solution?

My 82-83 MPH 1/8th mile traps normally equated to 13.4-13.7@104-105 runs in the 1/4, but I was also getting traction down low so you may get some Marcus-like 1/4 mile times (13.0@112).

Get another set of saw blades and some M/T or Hoosier slicks. That car has 1.6-1.7 '60 foots and high 11/bottom 12 in it if you give it a diet, get your setup optimized, and launch hard on slicks. That should smash my 8.2 pretty well.

 

can't really tell anything from botched runs except that it has more in it.

 

Better than 14.7

 

What was the Psi in your front tires?
