Took the Boss to the track on Friday nite, ran a new best of 7.11 @ 99 mph.
60' was 1.58.
I had problems getting the car to hook up, again. I lowered tire pressure to 14 psi, I am guessing it was a combination of temp cooling down and I wasn't heating the tires up enough. Just not sure.

Really wanting a high 6......

Very nice!! Keep at it, with that mph 6.9x shouldn't be a problem!

**Slow Five-O** · 05-05-2013, 10:36 PM

Damn nice!

**DirtyD** · 05-05-2013, 10:39 PM

That's badass! Congrats man! 7.11 with a boss is nothing to scoff at.

Sweet. What track do you run at?

**J.Shoot** · 05-05-2013, 11:08 PM

I run at Abilene. Keep wanting to head over to Dallas just haven't had the time.

Cool, def let us know when you do, would love to see this beast run down the track.

You should be into the 6's with that MPH.

My best was a 7.67 @ 100 with a 2.54 60' with no launch to speak of on 18" DR's.
Had a friend put his slicks on it and he took my car to a 6.96 @ 101 w/a 1.65 60'

Sounds like you need to upgrade the driver mod.

I just need to drop a few grand on drag wheels and tires that I use once or twice a year.

No thanks.

LOL, you just can't drive apparently. I was pulling 1.7'-1.8's my first time in this car at the track on 20 inch DR's.

Y U CAN NO DRIVE?!

**46Tbird** · 05-06-2013, 10:38 AM

Any car that can go 100 in the eighth should be able to cut a 1.8 on any tire at any time. That would literally just be letting out the clutch like at a traffic light and then rolling into it. If you could only cut 2.5 second 60's then you just don't know how to drive, sorry. Practice will help.

lol there is a big difference in getting 400hp and 700+hp to hook lol, but agreed 2.54 is pretty bad. Seat time will help
