You need to get some drag radials

I think it will be tough to do on street tires, especially with 18 inch wheels.. I don't doubt you can get into the 7's though on those BFG's.

Anyone have any drags or slick he can borrow?

Or why don't you just buy some!

Car on RX7club.com

Street legal, driven on weekends, only with a turbo a bit bigger than Blake's, with about 9 more #'s of boost.

330 4.477
1/8 6.892
1/8 mph 104.8
1000 8.989
1/4 10.747
mph 129

Oh yeah, Blake are you going to be on pump gas? Or you going to throw a little race gas in?

Now that I think about it, don't hope for 7's at Natty Bridge, the track is shit for traction.

Agreed...which is why i said 8.5's if its "street legal" meaning no slicks/radials...

The track will grip better than it normally does if the sun is out Sat.

Thats true, but at the last Quick 8's the Mustangs on street tires still hooked up pretty good, its good to compare timeslips from both tracks,I used to bitch about it being shit too, but their diffrent tracks so I guess I cant complain.
