GT500 Drag Strip Visit

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/G...rip_635750.htm

I think the car has a 11.4 in it with a slightly lower tire pressure

Not bad for minimal bolt ons. Get a lower crank pulley, full exhaust and go trap 130 with bolt ons. got to love gt500s. with 122 Idk see why you couldn't go 11.40s.

Brandun went 10.80s at 123. With 122 that car *should* be going ~11 flat

Yeah, but eddie d has em. I went to howards tonight. He's doing the intall. I might get the car done this week not two weeks from now. I'm stoke. I know what you mean Kevin. Although not impossible, brandun gets the best of his mph with that auto, hard to do with a manual car. But can be done.

11 flat is not a feasable expectation for that car. Its a 6spd non Solid rear car..so I dont see thats happening with the trap speed to trap speed comparisons..

Oh wow..I stand corrected..nice. But still have to realize its not gonna do what a semi-upgraded suspension F-Body will do as far as 60's and ET's for that matter..maybe with a combo of suspension mods and seat time he can chop away at that ET..whole point was there are too many factors at comparing such things as ET's and MPH on different cars because of suspenion/tires/powerbands

Nah emmad your correct for the most part. His mph shows a high ten though. an upper and lower control arms to kill wheel hop will prob do the trick. But in all reality I would not hope for tens on stock suspension either.
