8.5, but you dont need width my friend, you just need a real tire, and proper launch control...

Mig, Im sure jeff would run a much better time than 13.9 if he had good tires, I remember seeing his falken zeix ze512's spin like crazy, get some track 15's with BF drag radials and it will make a big difference.

All this corvette talk makes me want to buy this 1996 GrandSport i saw locally:

Thats a nice vette! Tires do make a huge difference, are the numbers you are running with or without drag radials? Im not sure what the numbers would be like if I were to run drag radials on mine... either way, drag radials or not, your car car still sounds like its pretty quick.

Well, once i get my car back, we should meet up. I will have some major suspension and power upgrades then. smile.gif But yeah, you have got a very nice ride. thumbsup.gif

That would be sweet, we could take the cars to the track and see how fast your car is with all of the mods your doing... Im hoping to get exhaust and headers soon... We'll see. I should be down in austin for a while this summer. We should definitely meet up then... And if for some reason you see yourself coming up to the boring state of Missouri, we could take the cars to the track around here...

actually the 13.9 were on his street tires (17"), it was his very first run at the track with the car swapped. A few months later he got the drags to try to get a better time.
