But your telling me he’s cutting consistant 10.6’s on DR’s, not slicks? Lets keep in mind, I dont have slicks yet. Im rolling on 315/35/17 bfgs. Either way, Im shitting out excuses because I dont see myself cutting the time the car is capable of yet. I never had this thing at the track yet. I’ll be happy with a low 11 for now on this setup. Im gonna run the stock clutch till its totally gone, then my DFX goes in. jj, nice pic. ---

No major slip yet, but no traction to test it either. ---

Forget the drag radials for the track and put some et streets on when you go to the track, I was running 17" DR’s and could’nt do any better than a 1.9 60’ and 12.4, put a set of et streets on for the next run and cut a 1.6 60’ and a 11.5 at 117. And this was done on all stock suspention. There are many Cobra’s with the IRS that run mid to low 10’s so with the power your car puts out and a set of et streets you can easily see low 11’s if not high 10’s on your stock IRS and suspention if your driver mod is working. ---
