Took the jump for 4:56's.

I never said that. Better check your reading again. LMAO!!! One kid was telling another kid that he needed less tire and asked why he had 315s. I chimed in on his part by saying it looks good like that.

LMAO @ idiots trying to call people idiots!!!

Less tire at the track, he does not need a 315 drag radial, that's ridiculous to think he does.

A 315 street tire, sure it'll look good. But that wide of a sticky tire is not nessacery.

2.24 on 2.73 and 225 street tires last time out.

When I had a pair of radials it was 2.0-2.1.

It now has gears, and hopefully with full drag suspension I can get 1.8 or better.

I'd like a 1.7, but I don't see that with stock power.

I just caught the edit.
Radials? Where your street tires bias ply? 2.0 isn't bad for a street tire unless they were drag radials. What did it run with a 2.0? Your mph can help you determine where your 60ft should be.

1.7 is doable on stock suspension with lowers and slicks. You shouldn't have a problem.

what tires?

Falken's

And did you notice I never said anything about him needing it? What if that is his only tire and he wants to have a badass look, but occasionally go to the track?

Too bad he can't donate some rubber to you, John Force.

This car has never seen a decent pair of tires at the track.

The 2.24 60ft I ran a 9.01@ 79mph

The 2.0-2.1ish was 8.97@79mph.

When I had the radials, I was straight dumping the clutch. (dumb) 2.73s that doesn't work well.. Live and learn.

Yes, I do need to work on my pedaling.

79 is good for stock, you can cut 1.8's all day with a 79mph car. You don't need a bunch of extras, just good control arms and tires.

I've got a set of 255 DRs sitting on some chrome ponies. They're currently on my car in the garage. If you want to make a couple of passes, go get them.

The 2.0 was a old shitty bald 275/50/15 nitto drag radial.

2.24 was a 225/55/16 kuhmo street tire.

It traps right around 77-80mph every time.

I attempted the track when it was cold to see what it would run with the 3.73s. It was humid, cold and I had bald tires. I ran a 9.6 @ 76mph, catching no grip. I would lift completely and get back in it to only spin more. Horrible day.

[Diabolic]

if you cut a 1.8 your mph would drop to 76 I'll bet.

My truck traps at 77 with a 2.1 60' and traps at 76mph with a 1.9. Seems like the better the 60', the less mph you trap.

That'd be awesome, I won't be making any passes until spring time anyways. Hopefully ill have a set by then, but if not I will take you up on your offer.

Just as I thought, you didn't understand what those comments meant.I understand that he prefers a large unnecessary tire on a stock car
Re-reading because you did not comprehend, check.re-reading because it had been a few days since the last time a had read this particular thread

I'll wager both are a little off.ill wager you need to get off his dick, just sayin

Just let me know. I cut a 1.78 on them. Your car should be OK with them, but remember... those wheels don't have one scratch on them. LOL

his et would improve, whats the point? my cars have almost always mphed more when i spun a good bit..

I never liked nittos. You should just concentrate on your rear suspension if you are having these types of traction problems with a 79mph car. There might be a problem. A good set of 275 50 15 street tires always hooked on my old stock 5.0's.

you have the other two you want to sell?

Trust me, if I were to use them thru would come back Just as they left.

I'd like to see what my car would look like with chrome ponys too.
