Talking about newer F bodies breaking beam for 60' timers with nose rather than wheels.

I've run a 1.078 second 60' ET on a 9" tire in my F/D.

We run a 9 inch tire on my comp car (H/EA)-our quickest 60' is 1.18.

Fella's that is some crazy 60' times in comp! Nice job!

I'm amazed that the comp cars can run that fast on 9" tires and hook consistently.

These are all low torque cars-when we had a splayed valve motor (more torque) in L/AA, we picked up a tenth in he 1/4 ( forget how much in he 60') when we went from a 10" tire to a 9" tire-radials helped even more.
