well we were going to try and head out again today but weather looks like it will not let us! but last week at infineon my buddys big block 68 camaro with a t-56 4.10's and a locker with old radials and slide a link traction bars was going
13.10-13.22 @113-115mph and the 60ft was ranging in the 2.10-2.23range and the car had nothing in 1-2 and even 3rd gear it would just haze the tires or he would have to lug it to get it to not break loose
we just had the bfg drag radials size 275-35-18 put on yesterday any predictions on what he will knock off time wise?

12.75 at 116 , radials are still going to haze, if he hazed the other tires that bad he just needs to learn how to apply the power, practice

Old school suspension and 18 inch rim's aer'nt going to be easy to hook up even with DR's on it. He should get into the 12's but track prep is going to need to be above average for Him to hit mid 12's. What drag strip is He running at?

I was very impressed with their launch pad there and was pulling the front tires off the ground for the 1st time there 2 week's ago. Should be at least mid 12's with good track prep there but it seem's You are alway's batteling a head wind.

I will have to check this car out tomorrow. What color is it?
He is still going to have a hard time putting the power to the ground. He might be able to get 1.9-2.0 60fts and run between 12.50 to 12.75. The track may be stickier again this week since it won't be so cold out.
