Good peddling. The burnout was a beauty too.You forgot to mention that that was with a 330rwkw tune at only 11psi. I think that's a record in itself. Its a testimate to your tuner.1.93 60' on factory Dunlops has gotta be close to the record. I can only imagine what your quarter mile time will be when your tuner cuts loose with a full blown race tune and you get some semi slicks I guess we'll have to watch this space.

Man, you'll be peaking into the low 11s or high 10s with just a change of tyre to MT's. Crazy. Good work!

I still had heaps of wheel spin, but it was manageable and fun! I had to do a half decent burnout to get some temp in the tyres ...Jim wants me to go to MT tyres, but I want to give it another go on street tyres in a couple of weeks ... I heard that 11.8 sec is the record on street tyres?

geea Site protagonist Lifetime Members 4,320 Member For: 22y 27d Gender: Male Location: At the lights, waiting for you. Posted 27/08/06 01:36 PM Share Posted 27/08/06 01:36 PM To the best of my knowledge I'm the only other person to run 11's on factory Dumlop 17's. I think my best 60' was also 1.93 but it may have been 1.91.I think my best time on the 17" factory Dunlops was 11.7-11.8 I'm not 100%. I'd have to go through hundreds of timeslips and try find the right ones.An 11 on the stock tyres is an awesome effort. A genuine 330rwkw's with good rubber should easily get a 10.Geea.
