What kind of 60' are you expecting now, realistically?
haha uhh I'm hoping for right around 2.0, I'd really like to see 7's with these shitty kumho street tires, but I'm not sure they have it in them.

You need to find a way to get the 60' down to 1.6

Is that even possible? I don't know of any similar cars to your in the area obviously but I'm sure you're on some kind of Volvo forum aren't ya? ...or possibly Ford forum??? What could you do to reduce the 60' times?

Put the 9" rear in and the 315's on 10.5 wheels I have sitting around, but that is much later down the road, and also in a different volvo chassis.

I think if my wagon did a 1.6 60' there would be trailing and torque arms littered down the track like lincoln logs. That would be IF the tranny held up and I'm sure the dana 30 axles would snap too haha. I'm working with a delicate drivetrain right now and if it holds up tonight to the abuse, I might go ahead and purchase slicks. I just want darn 7's, trapping 94mph and running 8.1 isn't good enough.

On another note, there should be some fast ass imports there tonight, 7m supra over 500whp, 300zx turbo high 400whp, jeff's KA-T ~500whp, gt42 lexus sc300, and Rhombus' 668whp S13 on race gas!

cams in his evo? huh...he never said anything about him having cams.

anyways, the owner of the STI was driving the evo tonight and ran an 8 flat. they were really happy with that.


i saw Jeff T., V8brick (don't think i ever got ur name) and rombous(sp?) there tonight. i think that was it from drag.
