Well, my buddy Chris did 11.77 @ 120 in his BPU Supra w/ Nitto's. Scotty TOOOFST had the MPH (129.69) but not the ET (11.91). Gotta get you some traction bud!

I didn't even go. I had some work to take care of. Oh that's right, you have all week to do chores so you can goof off all weekend.

Too good to be true a pair of 335-30-18 MXX3's,like new a few blocks away in a friends garage.Tires were unusually hard,like new tread,I figured they were just glazed over.After three burnouts rocks would barely stick to them.***.My bald pilots went 1/2 sec. faster.Couldn't get traction or use the juicy juice until 400 ft.Nitto needs to make some 335's.Anyone try Hoosier's in a 335-18"wheel,at the dragstrip?

ET streets, guys! They're the only way to fly....
Seriously, you're into your Viper for how much money? What's another two grand for a Purner slick and skinny setup (tires mounted and all)???
If you want, go ahead and punish yourself with DRs, but you're wasting your time and money.
As far as I'm concerned, there's something to be said for being able to wind her up to 4 grand, dump the clutch, and never having to worry about spinning.

Who wants to race?
I hit 10 seconds in the 1/4 mile last week.
Or at least thats what the cop said I was going to tag. Maybe he put me in jail overnight because of my acceleration, not my speed. Who will ever know?
I will tell you about the trial as it happens.

Check with Nitto again, I spoke with them in the spring and they said an 18" drag radial suitable for the Viper would be available in the Fall. Well it's the fall.

Byron is actually south of Rockford. Just look for the cooling towers from the Nuke plant and you can't miss it. By the way I remember hearing that the weather at Byron is always favorable. Never rains. Sometimes it rains right around the track but rarely on the track. The heat being disipated over the track from the Nuke plant has something to do with it. Just remember....don't drink the water around there. Blew a crossover hose on my 93 the last time I went to Byron. Killed me in the Triple Crown points that year.

Hey TOOFST you think it's ok to bring my SATURN to the track
Everybody,
This would be a great opportunity to get out of the city, bring the family and meet you all. From what I understand from an aquantance, The event is on Sunday the 14th? One of the contests held is the longest wheelie bar stand? I think that I have that right. Either way I need to find the link that can give me more information. If anyone has it or can post it, I would be greatful.
