Low 10's. I ran a 10.81 completely stock except for lowering the rear PSI on stock PS4 tires to 18. I also removed the gunnery flap and whickers and put the rain tray in. This was on a well prepped track used for NHRA events.
Maybe you get in the 9's? Not sure. Any idea how much HP at the crank?

For grins I did line lock and got a cool pic of it. In the pic you can see the whickers because the pic was from the previous outing. I ran a 11.01 then.

it made just about 880 wheel it also has FIC 1000s on it. my only concern right now is where to set these et street SS's at in terms of tire pressure. On my GT i have the et street r's and i run them at about 16lbs, but im not sure where to set these.

From MT site, 14-18 psi.

LOL whoops. didnt think to check their site... (facepalm)
With your HP level knowing the track will be marginal prep, you will probably need to lower them as much as possible with a smokey burnout in hopes of hooking them.

Are these on stock wheel or on a dedicated 17inch drag wheel?

this is the stock gt500 wheels with the 305 et street ss on it. I say marginal, my racing background includes being crew for 3 second radial cars, so i may be biased. we now have since switched to no prep stuff so ive seen all types. It is likely a decent surface for my GT, but might be less than ideal for the 500 if that makes sense.

This man knows NOTHING about going fast. Well, maybe in Mexico....

All kidding aside, you are in the presence "ish" of the record holder. I would say he knows what he is talking about.

so an update for anyone interested. Friday was a complete wash (thanks mother nature). Contacted a local track I frequent for photography and she welcomed me to come make some passes. The track was EXTREMELY green. ZERO prep, no timing systems. SO.. things went exactly as you'd expect.

According to the dragy here is my best pass in drag mode TP@17lbs
60ft- 2.17
330 5.83
1/8 8.93 @ 100.42
1000ft 10.43 @121.28
1/4- [email protected]

made 2 others, but nothing better just pretty similar, it was pretty much spin city. The MPH from 1/8-1/4 is impressive IMO
