I want to say we have one here at 305? Still, you'll drive the car differently on the street than you will at the track.

Get a set of drag radials and see what it can do before mods, you need some basis of comparison. I don't think there is much racing with the 216s or any on DRs. Stock wheel spin is annoying with the open differential. Traction control kicks in and ruins the fun even when turn off. The LSD will allow the wheels to spin a little slower since they are sharing the power.As a result, it's not crazy wheel spin, the computer allows it if you have it turned off on the dash.

Awesome times RaceHorse! Very impressed with the MPH and the great 1.59 60 foot. Would you mind sharing your modifications with us?
Great work! You can definitely tell you have put lots of effort into your combination.

Well those numbers are even more impressive now. I think I will need to order a driver mod. lol
I am contemplating a pair of drag rims for the car as well to do some track stuff. Also we have a race night next weekend and I may be able to run mine before she is sent out. Its just as it sits the car is all to anxious to spin the tires past 80 so I will have to try it with and without the ESP on. The reviews I have seen on the car shows that all the magazines got better times with the TC on. I think its 0-60 was 4.1 on and 4.6 off. Quarter mile was similar and time difference if memory serves. Anywhere in the 10's and I will be happy. Low 10's to high 9's and I will be ecstatic!
