|  What's your BEST EVER street tire 60 ft. time? And let me be a little more specific, when I say "street tire" I mean a normal non-sticky, regular old radial street rubber. My best ever was a 1.90

| 1.89 really light on the clutch and with southsides. I can never get below 1.95 ever again. I think the 1.89 was a fluke. Then again it was 42 degres outside and everyone was hooking good that night. So I would say on and average of a 1.95.

| 2.01 on an unprepped track with 225/60 15" cheap dunlops, and it was also still an AOD with the T-5, i can barely get better than that with 275/50 Nitto drag radials. aww screw it, if you are really into drag racing then theres no reason to go with anything other than slicks. after just a few boltons, its pretty much pointless to run street tires at the track

...thank you!!! I was thinking the same. Anything under 2.0 is VERY good IMHO ...for street radials, that is!gtsr515 ...where ya been, bud?? I've been living in the Benchmade forum for the past few weeks and haven't "seen" you for awhile. It feels good? to stop by MustangWorks and see what's up now that I got the stang fired up today (still some bugs to work out  ) ...take care, and did you ever get yourself a Benchmade axis-lock??? Everyone should have at least ONE.Oh, and sorry...  I'll make a legit post after I dig through my old time slips... it's probably too bad to even post  Later... | |

| ULTRAFLO...hey bud, I've been around stangworks mostly, reason I've laid of the Benchmade site is all my questions have been asked, and i really love the site, but I just don't really know much of anything about BM, so i keep my mouth shut, but I'm always looking, but not posting. Yes anything under 2.0 is great. You can do it, and i may be crazy but, I have noticed that i can do it with a worn clutch, but a fresh one i just cant get under 2.0. Later my friend!
