Probably more than that.
My 60 foot times have dropped into the 1.5's on gas. Traction is endless.
I run 1.7s NA which is 2 tenths quicker than very good street tyre times. This can equate to more than 4 tenths up the 1/4
My best on R1Rs was 1.87 as an indication.My 60 foot times have dropped into the 1.5's on gas. Traction is endless.

Neal, you will probably need spiked tyres to stop you ploughing furrows

I'm not even running mine up the strip without a set on.
Is there a limit the mt street can take before you change again to a full drag tyre ??
Not for us. Fadster used to run the same times on them in Twister with 1500bhp + a 400 shot to run low 8's at over 170.Is there a limit the mt street can take before you change again to a full drag tyre ??
Just get them smoking for a few seconds and give it all the beans you dare.

Can you spot the difference?
So now a decision to make.
Do i attach the gearbox and try to drop the lot in from the winch or drop the engine in as is and add the rest under the car?
Which will be the easiest do we think guys?

Yeah think i am leaning to dropping the engine in as is. Ive had plenty practice putting gearboxes in. but will those vents be man enough Del?
