my 60' were 1.79 @ 10.8, 1.9 @ 10.9 and 2.0 @ 11.2 .... they dyno was a dynocom, same concept as dynopack setup where you take the wheels off and mount it on a pod... i've seen less than a handful here on evom that ran thesame kdw tires i have and pulled some 1.5 60' times.. i dont' know how they do it.. but then again, im not even close to a descent driver..lol.. im below descent driver category..lol..

Thats not too bad considering your whole shot traction, you could get into mid to low tens with a good 60'.

just the way the car sits now without the sponsor help, would prolly cost me over 25k, i think:
WP Pro BBK 8 piston front/6 piston rear -$7k
HRE 3-piece wheels - $6k
BFG kdw2 - $1k
2.1 destroke by Trevtec Motorsport - $4500
SBR stage 5 head - $1500
Sheptrans evo4 upgraded tranny - $2500
Sheptrans stage 3 evo5 TC w/ evo8 quaife lsd - $1800
Status Ring CF seats - $3200/pair
Paint job - $3500
Custom chromoly 4-point cage - $700
Takata long harness - $600

wow. you got sponsors for all that stuff? thats the way to do it. last I checked I had 37,000 into mine. no help from anyone. I did all the work. only thing I didnt do was the paint job. I paid 2000 for that even though I did most the body work and most of the wet sanding and buffing. these cars look cheap on the surface but it ads up quick.
