Author Topic: any predictions? v-town coupe fordologist Member # 2771 posted                              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?

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? -------------------- Dont claim power if ya cant mile per hour. 10 second AOD Posts: 4388 | From: East Bay | Registered: Aug 2002  |  : v-town coupe fordologist Member # 2771 posted                              sears point Posts: 4597 | From: the V-town | Registered: May 2003  |  : SmokinLX ¯ Member # 1684 posted                              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. -------------------- Dont claim power if ya cant mile per hour. 10 second AOD Posts: 4388 | From: East Bay | Registered: Aug 2002  |  : v-town coupe fordologist Member # 2771 posted                              well if this weather stays this good looks like we will find out this week!! Posts: 4597 | From: the V-town | Registered: May 2003  |  : need-a-cage ¯ Member # 5415 posted                              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. -------------------- 93 LX Hatch, Dart Big Bore 347, Edelbrock 6037's, Cobra intake, Tremec, S-trim, 60# injectors, Tweecer RT 10.84 @ 128.5mph Posts: 606 | From: Santa Rosa | Registered: Mar 2005  |  : hidnn.o.s. ¯ Member # 1219 posted                           I'll be there................ 12.6x -------------------- R.I.P.
