Default 13.2 on a 100 shot

First of all I could not run 125 shot at the races on street tires just no traction.So I went to 100 and this is my time slip on my first run but I ran a 2001 Z-28 wirh DRs and long tubes and a chip and a standard and with a 100 shot I beat him by a finder! The car was fast. I guess a 13.268 is good right? All my runs were within .2
R/t --------.511
60----------2.131
330---------5.739
1/8---------8.666
MPH--------82.90
1000-------11.173
1/4---------13.268
MPH--------106.74
I thought I attatched the time slip but I guess it did not work.
Oh yea and I was doing about 6200 rpm too with 4.10s.
Oh yea and I removed the front sway bar and I hooked up much better especially after 1st. gear.

thats not too bad, you def need drag radials! Most cars with your mods on a 100 wet shot are going 12's all day. I managed a 13.3 on a goodyear radial, and completely stock car besides a 80 dry shot.

Your trap speed says that your only putting down maybe 60- 70rwhp as long as your getting traction and the shifts are good. Looks to me like maybe you had a few slow shifts, or had terrible traction....Maybe why the low mph....

Ive seen several Gts go out there and trap 110-112 on street tires and some 114-116 on sticky tires.

Those LS1s are pretty quick but IMO you should have pulled HARD on him through 2nd gear.......Thats the way it usually happens with me. He must have been a really good driver with traction. They usually cant catch up after you leave them through 2nd unless it has a cam or some heads on it...

Yea but you dont have 4.10 I cant even go that fast in 4th gear. I would hit the rev lemiter.

man that sucks.....Sounds like you have too much gear for it. You need some big 28 inch slicks.

I think I am going with 3:73s this summer.....

28's is too tall of a tire, 26" would work alot better and not hurt you. Too big of a tire can and will hurt you.

Yea but there great for the street, from a roll it great but I need to get where I can hook up in first on the track. But if I were to do with nitrous it would be 3.73. I dont know how anyone else can get more MPH than that in 4th. because I was right at the rev. lemiter,ya know? If I were to hook good would I be in the rev. lemiter as I cross the 1320 in 4th.?

My boy went 12.3 or 12.6 not sure which but he has 4:10's and he was high in his rpm's on a 100 shot w/ nitto's, the only thing he had different was raised rev limiter so he could stay in 4th gear longer.
