Thanks.....made necessary adjustments here

What tire were you using on the 17x4 oem Spare?

Based on your 60' times the last 2 times out (1.533/1.490) with oem gears and oem 17x8s w/MT 275x40x17, one has to question if the expense of a 15" drag set-up is actually worth the expense, especially if one has monster TQ numbers like yourself (602).....of course overall good/outstanding environment is key also.

Now if one has 3.91 gears, the need for a 28" tire on 15's might be a necessary evil to avoid hitting the rev limiter crossing the trap in 3 (auto) without decreasing RPM shifts, which I found necessary in my previous set-up.....17x4 w/M&H Front Runners and 17x8 w/MT 26x11.50x17

Once again..... Congratulations on your New PB

The Front runners were stock gto spares with their spare tires lol. Yeah should have a real tire on it I know

The only reason I am considering 15" is to be more consistant. The 1.49 and 1.533 our my two best 60s most fluctate between upper 1.5x and low 1.7x It would be a lot easier to dial in my car if I could cut similar 60s pass after pass. As far as tq Nitrous will do that for you

Pic of TS is helpful, but in most cases not necessary.

Will be happy to add you if you provide complete TS info and info outlined on Page #1. For example:
Date...Location...RT(.???)...60(1.88?)..1/8(?.???@ ??.??)...1/4(12.82?@108.6?)
YR(????)..Trans(A4)..TC(?)..Gears(?)..Rims Front(??)/Rear(??)..Tires(Non Drag)
RWHP(???)/RWTQ(???) if known
Just have to say....General Bolt-Ons (CAI)......Headers..non stock cam/heads/crank/bottom end....any power adders (Nitrous/SC/Turbo)

Right now you'd be consider in the
oem/Bolt-On Class...346/364a11 (11=Bolt-On)

In general, such info will give others an idea how their set-up compares.

Shortly, I'll be weeding out those with limited info...I initially added those when doing research for these lists, but many have not provided the missing info since.

Second time at the track. New 1/8 mile PB ET and MPH.

See my two best runs on the day:


Still have yet to do a 1/4 mile run. Any ideas on what 1/4 mile ET I should run based on 1/8 mile ET and MPH?

Drag Wheel Set-Up.....now to get them fitted
A friend who operates a custom body shop will undertake this task.

After test fitting 1 15x10 on a lift....the fitting will be tighter than say a 15x9,
or with a tire width of 10.5 and don't see it tucking in under the fender.
Any other Tips/Suggestions?

Quote: Originally Posted by GulfcoastGoat...

Didn't touch, but very close. I ground off a little metal just to be safe. No Pic The Inner Fender touched just forward of the shock in a 6" section, so I Hammered it in a little. Painted the area with some black spray paint to see if the tire rubbed while on a short test drive, (0 psi in dragbags). Here's the Pics. I did the hammer/paint/test thing 2 more times before getting enough clearance. The Upper Shock Dust Cover rubs pretty hard. I removed it. Cut it off with a cutting wheel in a die grinder Maybe there's a Rubber Cover that can be adapted? Gforce1320's Bracket/Hardware Kit may avoid cutting the Shock Dust Cover...Click I drove the car after all the mods. Did some rapid side to side movements and no rubbing. You may need Dragbags to keep the Fenders off the tire, unless your springs are high enough.

We have gone 10.003@137 on this set up. Quote: Originally Posted by evltwins... I now have 275x60x15 Hoosier mounted on 15x10 draglites.

I know there are drag springs but I need something to stiffen things up. I dont know if those will do it. Any ideas? Quote: Originally Posted by pbmgoat... Try Pedders 5/16th raise drag spring.

Ran one time with no drag bags or spacer and had a little rubbing inside the wheel well and on the shock. After adding the spacer and drag bags I have no rubbing at all. Stiffer springs and raising the rear will help. Otherwise, grind the shit out of the fender lip until it doesn't rub.

Quote: Originally Posted by Speedy0009... Note: Already have max of 10 pics allowed within a post...to see Speedy0009's Pics....Click Wheels are 1st Gen. GTO Bogarts, 15x9 w/26x10.0. Took some pics along the way and now doing this write up since I have no knowledge of anyone else posting such pictures publically. So on with the pics: After beating the inner fender lip in with a 3lb sledge hammer, I tried to do it easier with an air hammer but the one I have wasn't strong enough, so out came the BFH. Was told I'd would probably have to grind away at the a-arm for some clearance as well. So I took out my grinder and had at it, fitting the wheel so it would be just right and to the correct contour. After all was done, I sprayed it all with 3M rubberized undercoating, then a thin layer of flat black to help it match the factory undercoating better. The a-arm got just flat black where there was bare metal. Repeated this on the other side, and sprayed on extra undercoating to see how it would accumulate and look compared to the stock stuff. I may grind it down later and spray it thinner. Went on a 20 minute drive to see if there was any rubbing. I tried launching on the street a couple times but only got tire spin. When I got back, I checked a for rub marks, and found only one on the passenger side shock and it's very minor for now. Overall, not a hard thing to do at least up to this point. If the lips need to be hammered in more, I may run into a problem because behind the lip is some structural body and it won't budge with the hammer (if need be in the future, Mini-tubs LoL) Not the cleanest route to go but it's function over form here and in the end, once the wheel is back on you can't tell anything was even touched, so it works out great. Again, now it's time for some track testing!!! Hope this helps anyone looking to do similar...Enjoy! Quote: Originally Posted by My First GTO...
