Default Got the 30" tires to fit under LSX Drag Radial Z06

So we went out yesterday at Norwalk and tested the 30" tires.

They cleared and they hook!

We can now leave on 7lbs of boost without spinning and the car was running like a bracket car yestereday.

we weren't going for broke, but the car went

8.02@181
7.99@182
7.98@182

Putting the new All pro 4500 cast intake, Todd Berry Elbow, and accufab 105mm TB on the car this week and hope to be out testing again next weekend.

Your car has beeen a real inspiration to our shop, and our shop car. We just finished wrapping up our 25.3 chassis, and ford 9" IRS in our C5. We really wouldnt even had attempted it had we not seen what the IRS was capable of when you really throw the engineering at it.
Were staying in the 10.5 class though. were not going to run a big tire.

Congrats on your guys success.

No, I'm not in that league yet... But I'd like to be. There are a few things we need to still do this year before we try to make that kind of jump. If you go to any of the NMCA races and see those c6's there, you will know we have some work to do befor anyone is "called out"

I'll leave Lynch alone...

For now

Good job, Marc. Looks like progress will be made with the new tires once it is dialed in.

Sounds like you have your traction issues resolved,and with the up grades in mods I hope to see you running consistent 7.7x or better at the next first Friday (8/5/11) at Milan.
