Well it's been awhile since I posted on here, but tonight I drove this heavy son of a bitch into the 12's. I've been sitting on a 13.3 for one and a half years (http://www.vtcoa.com/forums/f11/ram-srt-10-rc-first-time-1-4-mile-run-52302/), that was until tonight :rock:. Weather was low 50's and since I put on the BFG KDW's a few months back I decided I'd shoot for a new PR. The only mods on the truck are Magnaflow CB, Catless Mids, and rear lowering blocks. I had the rear tires set at ~20psi and with a 3krpm launch slipping the clutch lead to a 2.06 60ft. Banged the rest of the shifts with the yard long shifter right at 6k which resulted in this. Run was against a 13' 5.0 with bolt-ons and slicks, not very fast if you ask me. I've told myself that I'll never run any stick shift at the track unless I have some soft wall slicks, but I just wanted to get in the 12's. The next track visit will be on bias ply slicks, that's the only way to go with a stick car/truck at the strip. I got big plans for the truck, and even though it might take awhile trust me it ain't just 12's/high 11's.:y::y:
Congratulations! Way to nail the gears with an un-modded shifter too. Looks like there is room to go even quicker, based on your 60'.
No doubt about that, speaking in relative terms a 2.06 is horrible lol, a 1.8x should be possible on the BFG's... but I think I'm done messing with DR's/Street tires with a 6spd. Slap some slicks on it and it's so much easier to launch, 60ft's better, and more consistent.
I use a Bogart 16x10, 16.5 lbs of air, M&H Cheater slick, 30" tall. You will have to shave the rear calipers for anything smaller than a 17" wheel.
Sounds good, already used to doing that on some other vehicles... 28's would be right at 6000 with the current power/trap. When I do get slicks it'll be 30"+ just for room to grow power wise.
I run a cheap 16x10 wheel and about 13psi, I don't have and issues with sway but I also run a bias ply 28x4.5x15 front tire too If he was going to stay stock the 28 would work but with just a few mods the 28's are too short for 4.56 gears

I wouldn't say a 11 second mustang is slow especially if it's just bolt ons and slicks
