after many tries with the radials with no success. John at M&H tire took really good care of me, I was able to break the 12's with their D.R. I have to say these D.R.'s are extremely sticky. I still need a little practice launching with these I only ran 3 times today best 60' was 2.0 (twice). I know I can get a 1.8 with them. By the way I was the only SRT-10 today, with about 10 L's. I ran quicker than most but there were a few in the 11's.
 
Congrats on the improvement....

Good work on the 60'
 
track and temp was decent. Had a terrible head wind!! about 25-30mph blowing right at you.
 
Excellent runs. I don't see any listed clutch mods or after market shifters for your truck. Are you still stock? How did you get the 1" drop in the rear and how does the front end feel after the drop?
 
clutch and shifter is stock. just added a 1" block to the rear suspension, no change in ride quality at all.
 
What kind of pressures were you running and what launch rpm? Congrats on the 2.0 second times.

1st run at 22psi (no spin, launched at idle) 2nd run at 20.5psi (no spin launched at 2,000) 3rd 20.5 psi launched at 3,000 (spun lots)
 
Congrats Dude!:rock:

Exactly what were your ET's and MPH?:D
 
nice runs:rock:

your truck had a lot of lightning owners hoping they wernt lined up with you,,,lol
 
good deal bro! yeah these tires take some gettin used to! What size did you get? I have the big ones 390's and w/ the cal tracs installed and a good burnout to heat them up i am launching at almost 5,000 rpms (with the tonneau cover on). have fun! now its time for some NOS!
 
nice improvement, but that just goes to show you need more practice! 2.0 is easy with the stock tires.

I got the 390's. Didn't heat them up too much and launched at 2k and that's were I got the 12 second run. I'll play around with it a bit.
