Default I put on the Slicks and guess what happined...

It went faster!! About daamn time!

Pulled a 1.67 60FT and went a 12.46@107.92. Beefey!

My best run of the night was when I had to race this riced out cavalier. I gave him a 4 sec headstart and past him at the 1/8th Mile. My friends in the stands said that the people were going nuts. They loved it. Next time I will give them a 6 sec headstart to make it more of a challange

Nice job, Ackbar!

12.46 is moving! Your car is a real strong runner.

Its stock

Its got the tubes welded, An Eaton 31 spline with Superior axles (no C-Clips). HPM Motorsports upper and lower, 3.73's, FMS Driveshaft.

I bet it would do alot better if I took off the front sway bar, had better struts, and something other than 17in front rims, but I like all that shhit so I am leaving it on. Just as long as my MPH is up ther, I am happy

That's damn impressive for the suspension (or lack there of) that you have. Even your 60' time with DR's is impressive! 1.80? Wooo Wooooo!

What is your launch technique for both the slicks and DR's?

First off, the DR's are getting well broke in(almost no tread left) I leave them at 24 PSI and launch around 2000 and just ease my foot into the gas at launch. I am still perfecting it but I am seeing typicaly better than 1.94 every time.

On the ET Streets, it is only my 6 pass ever! I "spool" up slowly till it hits 4200RPM and when it gets there I just nail it. Most of my passes on slicks have been 1.75's
