For a lucky dip 10sec timeslip going to need 26in slick,stall it up hard as you can...go dunny just before run lol.

Will be mighty close the way car is but might just scrape it in.

Will be good to see it crack a ten just once then try for consistent low 11's on street tyres.

what was your 60 foot times?for example if it was 2.2 sec and went down to 2.0 sec you will pick up 4 tenths of a second at the finish line with your et.

2.0 is the best 60foot that was with 11.7 121 and 350hp at the wheels I think the car has a 1.8 sixty in it easy with slicks and it now making 370hp. I'm going to fit 23-8-13 slicks

2.0 sec 60 footers is very Impressive for razor blade tires.....my 60 ft are 1.34 but Im running 13.5in slicks ...lol

and if you are running the standard xu1 brakes with 121mph you are 9 mph of a chute ....

pretty impressive speed 124 mph shouldn't have no troubles on a good track running strong 10.90s fairly easily and even better I would say,..my yellow L34 went 11.1@ 120mph then 11.2 @ 122.5 mph mines a manual stick shift car...yours is running a auto I take it..
