These are the numbers from the supercharged qaud-4 cavy that I ran against in the second run. He's a buddy of mine. It's a 4 door auto. This was the best time he's ever cut in his car. He beat me by a bit cause of the launch and I just about had him at the end, but ran out of track. By 3rd gear I was reeling him in hard but it wasn't enough.

2.5 mph faster than the last time out.

It was 79 degrees out and I was using 91 octane. Look at the horrendous 60 foot times. I could run 60 feet faster than that. There is no such thing as launching a stock SS. So much wheel hop it caused my car's brake light, and ABS warning light to come on. They both stayed on till I shut it off then restarted...

Typical GM... can't launch for shit.

Unless it's a Corvette.

Fbody's suck balls at launching in stock form. My 60's aren't any better. 2.3-2.4 is my average. Plus shitty 245 tires outback... bleh.

[BullDog71ss]

Hey, imagine if you had a set of 18's with rubber bands for tires. Then you'd really be in a world of hurt, heh.

[Mr. Luos]

My best 60' foot time was a 2.1xx on street tires. Just takes practice. I tend to average around a 2.2xx.

good times man. If you could get those 60's down you would be whole lot faster. When i first when to the track with my supercharger i ran a 2.0 60ft, that managed to get me a 14.7, later that night i ran a 2.3 and a 15.1. With the same MPH.

I pull those in a open diff honda

j/k I've driven F-bodies its nearly as hard if not harder to launch them

I've gotten a 2.5

we all need slicks

[Mr. Luos]

The worst I ever did was over 3 seconds.
It BLEW the tires off....was quite funny actually. 15.4 at 103MPH.

hot damn so thats what more then 8 ft lbs at 74K rpm gets you

must have been a wild run! We all need slicks badly.

[Mr. Luos]

I need a rear-end...then slicks and I will be good to go with 1.7xx 60's.
That was a funny run. I could barely believe the slip. I knew it was bad....but I didn't think it was that bad.

No way in hell the 60's are coming down with this suspension/tire setup. The only way to get it out of the hole without insane wheel hop is to take off at idle, as if I was coming away from a stoplight...in some what of a hurry.

I need smaller wheels, better tires and poly inserts for my engine/tranny. Then I can get the power to the ground.

Thanks for the encouraement tho mang.
