I have a 2005 RC SRT-10 with these mods, Bassani headers, Mid-pipes, Maganflow cat back, B&M shifter, and K&N cold air intake. Made three passes, the temp was 59 Degrees, Humidity was 67. First pass was a 13.209 at 110.18 1/4 mile. Best pass was a 13.104 at 111.12 1/4 mile. My 60 foot time sucked 2.3 and a 2.4 , I need Slick or drag radials. I just want to share with everyone, I will be getting the Computer this week and I will see if that makes a difference
 
That trap is great for a none flash truck, I guess cold air and the ability to breathe really helps these trucks out. You have a sub 12 second truck if you could hook up.
 
Great trap speeds !! :D Agree, some DR's or slicks and you are well into the 12's :burnout:
 
Great runs. Work on your launches and you can hit 12s with street tires. I am getting 2.0 - 2.1 on the Pirelli's. With your trap speed you'd be deep into the 12s.:rock:

Incredible runs. Congrats. Mine isn't that fast with a flash. Although I don't have headers or mids on yet. But, Mids are on the way from Boomer. Hope to get them on by next weekend

Great times! Get those slips up on the timeslips link... :rock: should be proud of them for sure....
Best 60' I had on the stock rubber was a 1.9.... and I would not suggest slipping the clutch to get it.:eek:
 
I will post pics of timeslips tonight. Where do I get Rims that will work with drag radials?? I am getting my computer this week, but I need traction bad. Thanks everyone

get the M&H 390 drag radials.....like Rice eater......they will get you a 1.8 60'....and you will be mid 12's.....:rock:
 
American Eagle makes the wheel that will fit over the rear calipers. 17x10 I believe is the size. Then you can put on the drag radials..either 325 or 390's. Rice Eater is the expert in the wheel/tire size area...he's been most helpful getting me straightened out as to what size to get.

Not sure if he'll want the 325s since he's basically stock or the 390s which is what I gathered would be best for forced induction trucks.

Trainman has similar mods......and has a killer time on those 390's............:rock:

Excellent runs dude. Did you lower your tire pressure to 22-24 psi? If not, that will help. These trucks really like the cooler weather.

Yeah they do! Its freezing here (mid 60's) :D and my truck runs very violently with the CAI in this cold.

I see you're from Delaware. Where did you race at?

If it's not too far, you should give Cecil County in Maryland, or Atco in New Jersey a try. They seem to have some really good track prep most of the time. With my mods, which are similar to yours, and ~22-23psi in the tires, I can generally hook up pretty well on these strips - 1.9/1.8 60's.

You should be pushing 12.5's or better if you can hook!:rock: :D
 
I am from Millsboro, DE I ran the truck last night at Cecil County Dragway. I never lowered my tire pressure, I just pulled up in line and ran, I made 3 passes last night, and it was cold!!!. I am going back this friday with tires and we will see what it does.
 
Thats the best trap i've seen on an n/a motor without even a flash.:rock:
I cant wait to see your time with a sub 2.0 sixty.:)

Jeezuz Jenny!!! Your'e funny!!! It's Freakin 39-41 here...........Cold Hahahaha!!!!!!!:burnout:
 
yeah bro your trap speed is smokin!!!! We have similar mods and i think my best trap was a 109. w/ tires and computer you'll be mid 12's for sure on a cold night! the temps are dippin here too!

I'd definately recommend the M&H 390's.....go big or go home! Order through the forum and you'll get a discount.

aewheel.com has several models on there offered in a 17X10" 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern that will work. I have the 058's.

Good luck and PM me any ?'s Keep us informed!
