CRAWDAD Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I have been 11.46@127mph with 1.65 60ft in July temps. I Have been 7.28@99mph 1/8th mph with 1.63 60ft in Sept. The weight of the car was 3925 with me in it. I will be removing the passenger side seat the rear seats and the shaker 1000 sub-woofer box. (2 10's and 2 small amps) I have to remove the seats this winter anyways to install a cage so I might as well start early before I go to the track on Nov. 6th. *How much weight do you think it will drop? *Can you think of anything else that I can remove easily to drop weight? AND THE REAL QUESTION *What do you think it will run? It will be 55-60f that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffro Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 remove the spare tire also if it has one. doing some math, just a sec. if you can shave 100 lbs from spare tire, and seats youll be at 11.16 in the july temps. although the track will be cooler with less traction, boosted motors love cooler temps. these cancel any sort of gain or loss, so 11.16 is my final answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAWDAD Posted October 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 remove the spare tire also if it has one. doing some math, just a sec No spare, but did come with a tire pump. It has already been removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE-O Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) I say you will run 10.9-11.1 at 130ish... If you ahve the same 60ft. Dont know if the cold will limit your grip in the rear tire but it should help out boost out for sure..

CRAWDAD Posted October 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 12.9???? I think I was doing that stock must be a typo:confused: Jeff. I have been all over that site!

kirks5oh Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 best way to get weight out of the car is to drill holes in the frame. don't know if they make the killer chiller for the GT500, but that made a huge difference for my cobra.

Forrest Gump 9 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 If you can cut 1.6's 60' time then at least low 11's to high 10's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clone Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Did you take the front stabilzer bar off? Saves weight and lets the front end transfer the weight quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
