For now I just want to get some get the most of out my car stock with DR. I know Chappy ran 13.3 100% stock. With good DR I have mickys, I'm hoping to go around 12.8/12.9. I have heard that good tires can take off .5 second to a time.
blackbenz, 11.4 is really nice congrats dude, you place your time on http://www.dragtimes.com

What kind of times where your running stock and what do for the best lunch, I need to get a better 60 foot. Also what speeds did you trap at?, thank you for all your help.

Thanks guys
Much faster times to come in the fall... guaranteed ![action](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/action1.gif)
I didn't buy the car stock so I never ran it stock. Drag radials help alot if you are currently spinning off the line. Best thing I can recommend is practicing the launch. Do a nice big burnout on the d/r's to heat em up (not necessary on street tires). I usually power brake to ~1200 rpm on the launch. I have yet to master what rpm to launch at so play around with that. Every car will be different given the mods. Some people even say its best to launch off idle. My best time so far was run last year and it was 11.48 @120.5mph with full interior (minus the spare). Since then I have added the headlight intakes, VRP cams, an ice reservoir for the supercharger circuit, lighter wheels, 1.5 PSI more boost, and a wet 50 shot of nitrous. I am doing a custom torque converter and upgraded valve body soon as well (within the next 3 weeks).
If you have the money I would get someone to build a custom turbo kit with fueling and tuning, build the engine with lower compression, build the trans, and get beefier axles. Two GT35R's on a 5.4L V8 would be a MONSTER! 1000whp wouldn't be impossible and 9s car is within reach

I will definitely keep you posted. If I dont break stuff (i.e. axles) and can get traction I think the car will go lowwww 11's (without nitrous)
