That's great for drag radials. I don't see why the slicks wouldn't get you sub 1.5 60's... providing the diff and axles can handle it!
i meant with slicks on i'm expecting 1.50 or lower 60 FT



diff and axles are upgraded. the car will be drag raced but not twice a week like i have been doing lol

that doesn't make sense though. a FD has 255 hp and does 0-60 in 5.2 and the 1/4 in 13.0-13.5



oh well what i do know



i only timed my FD and my TII LOL
I know why, cuz that **** in magazine is BULLSHIT!!!! they probably had some drag racer PRO driver do that fc time, im postive, and yes it was bone stock.

I don't rust road and track. Motor trend is my source. It seems that, generally, road and track is slower, but a couple cars are faster than motor trend. I think they are biased. They had a Mustang Cobra beat a ZO6, and that's just wrong. According to everywhere else, a ZO6 would kill a mustang Cobra.

Ive beaten the other NA S5's ive raced with equal or more mods so I think the weight difference is a big factor.
