I only ran it twice. I knew my traction wasn't getting any better with the cold weather so i figured why waste my time. My buddys corvette (sig) blew out his rear first pass. He didn't even make it past the staging lights. Typical GM product. lol.


At the moment i'm going to be just looking on improving my time as is. I usually try to max out the car before I do any more mods. I feel as if the car can do 12.30's as it is now. So as soon as i accomplish that, then i'll do something else. Not exactly sure yet.

Make sure like I said to really heat up those Nittos. They seem to like A LOT of heat to really hook up well. I'm glad your liking that nitrous setup. Just keep it below a 150hit and she will run for awhile on the bottle. I think for a street/strip car 125 is perfect shot.

125... now..I'll preach tune it... TBH though..high 11's can be seen under good conditions...

Steeda97 04-10-2009 11:06 AM

Well it was only about 40 degrees out. There wasn't much i could do.


11's aren't possible with my current setup. Low 12's yes.

Pretty fast, for a chick car.

Steeda97 04-10-2009 11:26 AM

If my car is a chick car, whats that make yours? lol.

PColav6 04-10-2009 11:27 AM

A prettier chick car

Sorry For the Late Reply...

Congrats on the New Times!

Some Mickey Thompson Drag Radials and spraying outta the hole = Low 12's!

Steeda97 05-16-2009 06:56 AM

Definitely. I think with some warmer weather being able to heat up the Nitto's I could go 12.30's.

ShapeShifter 05-16-2009 03:11 PM

Ditto, those Nitttos need to be hot to dead hook.

If you checkout my vid(in sig) im running on Nitto Drag Radials and had to do a John Force burnout to actually hook. 1.73 60'ft in said vid. It actually surprised me it hooked, LOL!

Steeda97 05-16-2009 06:14 PM

I cut my best run with a 1.996 60 foot. Which is absolutely terrible with 4.10's, drag radials, and nitrous.

I should get a 1.7x 60' when its hot enough to roast them. They weren't even sticky. Possibly cut a 12.2x. Possibly.

stanger00 05-16-2009 10:46 PM

i have a auto and i run a 2nd gear burn out for about 6-8 seconds on the nittos. the best 60 i cut with that method is a 1.8 at 15 psi.

Rule of thumb with nittos drags is: "GIVE EM HEAT AND LET EM EAT."
