FWD 3750 lbs with driver and the 1/4 was in 70* F and high humidity the 1/8th was 66* and dry...do you think i have a 13.8** in me???

Dark_5.0 · 11-26-2002, 12:03 PM

You have enough mph to run a 13.8, but that 60ft will have to fall into the 1.90 range.

Nice,

302 LX Eric · 11-26-2002, 02:01 PM

What kind of tires were you running there? Those 60' times are pretty good if you're on street tires - however, I'm guess you were on drag radials?

Again, the 13.8 is there, but the 60's have to come down.

toyo T1-S235/45/17...woe 1.90's huh on a FWD im not sure i have it in me....let me add i think i can trap 103 in the right weather do i still have to do 1.9** to get there with a 103?

Dark_5.0 · 11-26-2002, 07:13 PM

If you trap 103mph mid 13's are well within your reach. Most races are won and lost within the first 60ft. Have you ever thought of putting some 15 inch wheels and drag radials on the front when your at the track. Or maybe do some suspension work to the rear of the car so all the weight doesnt come off of the front tires.

You must be an excellent driver to cut 2.0 60fts in a front wheel drive on radials.

Keep it up your almost in 01' cobra territory

You guys are faster, but I sure feel good having the 60' time of 2.193 with a 16.38 ET.I can stall to about 2,000 with the stock AOD and 3:55's it leaves pretty good;Obviously, hehe.

84LX89GT · 11-27-2002, 12:15 AM

Those are some impressive times, i didn't know those cars were that fast! I think 13's are easily in your reach with a good run. Good luck!

Good job man!! People don't realize how hard it is to hook up with a FWD car, even with good tires. You have the power, just got to get the launch.

typeR · 11-27-2002, 04:02 PM

thanks again all....im going tonight...looks like the weather might be favorable for some real power...if i go 8.8**@81 ill concider it a low 13.9

Dark_5.0 · 11-27-2002, 04:55 PM

Bastard!!- Where do you live. The tracks are already closed here in West Texas.

Good luck,

Rev · 11-27-2002, 07:24 PM

The best I ever get is about 2.10 60' times. That's on street radials. Not sure how much drag radials or even slicks would help me? I doubt it would be very much.

Shaggy · 11-27-2002, 08:14 PM

Rev i have always kinda wondered since we are running close to the same chassis (falcon and mustang being built on the same chassis in 67) what Suspension mods you are running since are 60' are so much different. I know my spool helps me some but i wouldn't think 3 tenths the 1.89 on that old time slip was done on regular BFG radials (245/50/14) not DR's, I have generic slappers adjusted to hit directly under the sprinch eye with the snubber just touching and about -4degrees of pinion angle subframe battery in the trunk and subframe connectors.

That all being said i think with you 101 MPH you should be able to almost run a 13 flat and whatever the case may be the sticky tires should get you there.
