Guest Guests Posted 08/12/07 02:00 AM Share Posted 08/12/07 02:00 AM I have very similar power to you and on 18" dunlops I managed 13.0, 12.8, 12.8, 12.7 all @ 112mph last time I went down. My 60' times were a little lower at 2.0 so if you can manage that you could go a bit lower on street tyres, then maybe a low 12 on slicks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/40431-326-rwkw/#findComment-606097 Share on other sites More sharing options...
velluto Member 40 Member For: 18y 3m 29d Gender: Male Location: Hamilton, NZ Posted 08/12/07 02:13 AM Share Posted 08/12/07 02:13 AM Personally.............I'd be rapt with that. I have similar power (333) and could only manage a 13.7 at Meremere in NZ (we notice over here that your times for same car/power are quicker in Oz - something to do with underarm bowling!?!?!?! - more likely to be the superior track surfaces you have). After that it was 14s with 60ft of 2.5-2.6. I am not good at getting off the mark. My speed same as yours 178-180kmph or 112mph. I was on streets also. I know my car can go quicker....right now the driver is the problem. Enjoy your '12 something' Mate. I am sure you will go quicker. "they" say you will take up to .75 of a second off with something like an E/T Street (not street radial) so that would take you into low 12s. The way I see it, I would still rather have a manual for the 99.9% of the time I am not tearing down the strip.Velluto Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/40431-326-rwkw/#findComment-606102 Share on other sites More sharing options...
