What tires, tranny, and rear end was that on? Also what was your reaction time? thanks

[gstuning]

mmm, reaction time was 1.5sec, not good at all,
complete run time was thus 14,27sec but the time it took me to travel the track was 13,27

60ft was about 2.15

tranny is euro M3
rear end was 3,73 LSD
tires where "17 Toyo´s 245/35-17 with about 35psi pressure

I raced against a late model Mustang and it´s reaction was 0.5sec and he completed the track in 14,3, I left a second later and was able to catch him still

I was extremely nervous,
even more so after this run, never got another good one that night, also grip was going away as the ashpalt when´t wet and slippery

Don't see that happening, ever. Even 13 would be something to brag about.
I did 15,91s/148,8km/h last summer. M50B25TU with M20 flywheel and Getrag 260 gearbox, street tyres (225/45-R16), i=3,78. Some grip only with 3rd and 4th gear.

I know 325Projectz got Devon's car down to 15 flat, but he said he could have done better. 3.73lsd and the G-Rag 260.

(M50 motor; vanos)

Not necessarily. I think a s50/s52 powered e30 could hit high 13s.

[gstuning]

Stu with 8.5 1/8 should get low 13´s,,
my S50 dynoed 244rwhp and got 13,27sec,, I don´t know of anybody with a S50/M50 NA powered who has gone faster,
maybe Ian Haynes
