Default Bad night

Well last night I went to the track and made 4 passes at my local 1/8 mile track Sunshine Dragstrip. Keep in mind I am on stock wheels well atleast Khumos 245/45/17. The R/T's are dumbed down so these are on top of the allowed .500

1st: 9.81 at 77.03 MPH R/T .562 60' = 2.67
2nd 9.83 at 77.32 MPH R/T .590 60' = 2.82
3rd 9.89 at 79.01 MPH R/T .322 60' = 2.62
4th 10.01 at 75 MPH R/T .232 60' = 2.74

As you can see I was spinin most of first and second

You need some tires.You cant really judgewhat you might run since your 60' is messed up due to notraction, but witha trap speed of 79mph you should be in the high 8's in the 1/8 easy with some D/R's.

Just to give you an idea. I ran a 9.8 @ 71 with a 2.1 60ft when my car was stock. So like previously said, 79 mph will net you a good time with better tires.

Of corse I believe your mph will drop if you hook a good 60ft, may be wrong tho.
