Just curious what kind of 60' times people are looking at... AWD, FWD, regardless. The strip season is coming up, and I'm getting a bit of cabin fever. Rather than talk about 1/4 times, I'd rather discuss and build concensus on how to lower the (my opinion) most important part of the time slip. Please chime in with your set-up, best times, etc. I gotta figure out what I need to beat this year!

At the time of the 11.8 my 60 was a crappy 1.91 spinning the Sumitomo All Seasons. The best that I could muster that day was in the high 1.8's. Very weak in my opinion. Tires would make a whale of a difference at this point.
When I was running about 150 less HP at the 12.6 range, I could hit 1.70's on my street tires with the AWD. James. if you get some stickies and upgrade the rear control arms, you will be in pretty good shape. I've seen Josh pull the front tires in a Fox body running close to the same ET's I'm running now. -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo
