Well we had a track rental this pass saturday and i decided to run the truck to see how it would do. I ran on 285/55/20 street tires. Track was a little slippery due to the heat, but over not too bad for the first time out. I made 5 passes total but only 2 were worth anything. I have some 315/60/15 MT DR's to try out next time and will run the nitrous with that. But if i can get my 60's down on motor i think i can get a 13.99 which would make me happy. I need some gears too seeing as the truck falls on its face just after the 1/8 mile mark.
14.74@94 with 2.6 60 ft
14.43@96 with 2.29 60 ft

Loose some weight, and is that 4900 lbs with you in it?
I ran an 8.3 with a weight of 4700lbs with me in it in good weather with my old cam. Thats a pretty low 13 second pass, and that was with 325rwhp.
What was your 60ft?

yes 4900 with me in it and 1/2 tank of 93. 60 ft times are in the first post 2.6 and 2.29. it was spinnin bad and i had to lift on the launch and the 1-2 shift it would spin some too. it was about 85* out with 70% humity so that might be a factor too. I believe on my 14.43 run my 1/8 mile was 9.8 or so

thats what i'm hoping. on your 8.3 run was that on street tires or stickies? what cam were u running at that time? what kinda 60 ft did you have with that? i just want to know where i stand compared to other trucks. i cant wait to spray this thing too, just having issues with the window switch ATM.

The weather was in the 60s on that run I think.
