Re: What does it take to run a 10? 500whp@DB, practice, or both? Neither?

I like this idea. 12's and we will payban you. 11's are nuetral. 10's, I will payban myself

Don't get me wrong, I really hope this ends in me paybanning myself because that's a great accomplishment!

I wish you guys the best of luck!!!

Keep in mind my 10 was a very high 10. 10.93 and I trapped 137mph. This was at appx 540hp at DB, and on a 1G with a little bit of weight reduction but not a ton. And that was probably my 15th or so pass on that setup. The launch and 1-2 shift seemed to be key. And like others said, the larger the turbo, the trickier the launch seems to be.

But I still consider myself a drag racing newb, so I'm not an expert what-so-ever. I'm still learning right along with y'all. You may turn out to be way better drivers then me right off the bat, who knows. Either way, it's all about having fun to me!

And yeah it'd be fun to come, but my next 2 weekends are already booked up with other crap. And then by the time I have an open weekend, I'm hoping either my car is sold, or it's in the middle of disassembly to start being parted out. Sad
