Most everyone that runs 10's with the 20G, uses some type of enhanced racing tires, some little weight reduction, good octane fuel, etc.

This run last night was done on 3 gal of 112 fuel mixed with what I guess was 1 gal of 93 that we left in tank to drive it to the pump, Bridgestone tires, and a full weight car with SSL package, and the trunck full of my work stuff. It has everything that came from the factory, plus the bolt-ons I added to it.
We normally run C16 fuel, which is what the car is tuned for (we were not prepared yesturday for this event) or the last one come to think of it, . Even had to take some fuel off the car.

Add some Drag Tires to it, Take a few pounds off, the car will do better. 10's?? Only way to see, is to do what we say it is going to do!
I am happy with the run. I was hoping for 11.3-11.4 ET and 122-123 mph.

We never re-tuned after the head came off and a new Gasked and Studs were added. I am waiting for several parts to install, the car is running good and I decided to wait several weeks. So I will waint until then and the re-tune will go in after that with the help of Jestr.

That obviously changes the story. Drag radials were not mentioned originally. Going with 17" 225 BFG's or what?

It will do 10's all day long? Clearly at this point that is not true. Going from 11.49 to 10.99 all day is harder said than done. When it does 10's all day long it does 10's all day long.


GOODLUCK!
