I may go down to TMP the friday of the J&P weekend. thats funny....a few weeks ago when we were there a street driven 98 bird ran a 9.2 @150 mph not tubbed, just beefed up stock location suspension, and it was still over 3000 lbs http://videos.streetfire.net/video/6ff0f86f-1fff-4484-a572-98080000115a.htm

I hear that 305's do pretty good there too.... Just wish it was mine...lol

Your Raw 305 power would have beat me on my last track night! I'm awesome. I'm also done screwing around. Nitto's are going on before I hit GBM or TMP on our next track day. No questions asked.

Thats good, I dont think your rear will go boom with one track day, like I said mine's still gonig strong. But us Arthur folk do seem to have luck with the mighty 10Bolt's.


John's went single diget's on his 10bolt


Its the trany's we dont seem to have any luck with

I had over 100 passes on my 96 and 20 of those on drag radials. I didn't make anymore strange noises than normal and no girdle on it either

Was John's a 7.5" housing? If so that's awesome.

His car was auto though too right? Most LS1 cars with A4's can hit 10's before grenading.

Nope...and yes

I think it may have a transbrake now though? That would be hard on rear ends

Borrow Dan's tires for a pass and launch at 5k. You'll only need the tires for one pass - maybe two if it doesn't blow up

Mark

mines 8.5 rear end...28 spline axle with transbrake...but i don't screw my slicks to my rims or im sure i would have chunks....have spun the tires about 5 inches on the rims so far.

I've had over 100 passes on mine with ET Streets. Most at 5000 rpm, some at 6000. That was with the stock 3.42 gears.
Wore out the ET Streets so I'm trying the ET Street Radials now.
Give it a shot with the Nittos, I'd bet it would be an instant 12sec timeslip.
