Good luck this season! I wouldn't bank on a full second from tires but they are certainly going to take some time off. Cant wait to see it run. 6 speed or auto?

It's an automatic . I don't think I can get a full second out of the tires either but a tenth here and a tenth there they all add up sooner or later ya know so maybe by the time I get it tuned up and dialed in good it can be conpetitive anyway . I guess with et streets I'll have to run in hot street ?

That class allows slicks/drag DOT... and has a 7.50 index Is this the class that you run in N20mike?? your car looks pretty fast does it run 7.50s The bottle pushes me closer to the 6.50 limit of Hot Street, so I run in that class. Mean Street has a 7.50 limit, and is very popular. Most true street cars are in Real Street or Mean Street. Good Luck!

Oh O.K. Mike I see so if your car runs closer to the 6.50 class with the bottle and I dont have a bottle how much of a head start would I get if I can even get it run 7.50 ? would I get the roll or the go as they say or how would that work ?

You start when the other guy does, but you'll be in a class where nobody can run faster than 7.50 seconds or they automatically lose. So... get your car as close to 7.50 as you can, without going faster.

I know im going to be starting in a different class than you mike but I figure by the time get it tuned up with new spark plugs and new wires and dist. cap and put some high octane race gasoline in it with the ET steet tires maybe I can get to that 6.50 mark like yours . So if you run slicks and nitrous and your a secand faster than me and i have no nitrous and on et steets how much of a head start do I get to race you ? I figure if I run faster cars than me then it would help me get the car tuned it .

So if you run slicks and nitrous and your a secand faster than me and i have no nitrous and on et steets how much of a head start do I get to race you ? I figure if I run faster cars than me then it would help me get the car tuned it . There are no head starts. Everybody starts at the same time. You'll be racing with cars that run no faster than 7.50 seconds. If your car was built to run faster, and had all the safety equipment, it could then be placed in the faster class. It takes a REALLY strong true street car to run 7.50 in the 1/8 mile naturally aspirated. Good luck getting there!
