3rd trip to the track in stock FRC

Well I made it back to the track this past weekend with my zip tie mod and a set of Nittos.

Best time was a 12.89 @ 107 with a 1.94 sixty foot

What do you guys think about this time.

ET is nice, MPH seems low. 60 ft time could be a little better, with radials(nittos) and all. Zip tie mod, and radials don't make the car stock anymore pimpin. Either way,...nice ET man.

mph was at 109 the weekend before that, but after adding the stickier tires it dropped a little.

I think the car is close enough to stock, not bone stock though.

If you have ever been to the track this run was made at you would be very happy with the 60' time, it is horribly prepped to say the least.

Thanks guys

1.9 is a good average 60' including the 12.89. Good run dude! Don't let anyone tell you anything different.

That's a good time for the MPH. I was running low 13s in stock trim with my SS.

Congrats!

Did you try adjusting the tire pressure or launch rpm or both?

mostly adjusted the launch rpm, I didn't need it to hook any better as the clutch was starting to slip on the 1.9 sixty foot passes
