what could i do to...

03svtcobra · September 16th, 2009, 09:21 PM

So I ran the car a few weeks ago not happy with the time but my girlfriend took some pics and I noticed in one them I was about to pull a tire off the ground. Is there anything I could to make it pull them off the ground? A guy at my work said to take the front sway bar off and it would? I ran 8.56 in an 1/8 babying the car 4k launch and 2.0 60 ft. I didn't dumped the clutch I just eased out. also had mt et streets.

03svtcobra · September 16th, 2009, 09:33 PM

or to me it looks like its going too lol

mustanginky · September 16th, 2009, 09:34 PM

that pic is nowhere near good enough to tell if it's about to pull a wheel or not.

03svtcobra · September 16th, 2009, 09:38 PM

it was right as i took off they all said it came up a little more. but i just wanna know if taking the front sway bar would work or would i need a lot more work to accomplish this. and sorry the pic quality sucks i had to blow this up alot.

i run mickey thompson et streets when i go but i dont dump the clutch. i ease out that why i had a 2 sec 60 ft

DickH · September 16th, 2009, 09:54 PM

It's just weight transfer. Do suspension work and lose the sway bar and it will almost always look like you are about to lift the front off.

03svtcobra · September 16th, 2009, 09:57 PM

what kind of suspension work? i still have stock irs.. i want as posi sra tho

1979rs/z28 · September 16th, 2009, 10:10 PM

I think a sra swap will help greatly.

03svtcobra · September 16th, 2009, 10:12 PM

anybody want to trade? haha i have no need for irs. i dont like road races just drag racing. so i'm looking for an posi sra direct bolt up with 3.73 is possible lol

trueblue02GT · September 17th, 2009, 12:04 AM

fix your wheel hop and take off your front sway bar and any other stuff in the front you don't need

Blackbird1084 · September 17th, 2009, 04:30 AM

Um not to rain on your parade but you need a hell of alot better 60' to pull the fronts off the ground trust me I know. The first time I pulled the front tires in my TA I cut a 1.65 60'. Now I pull them almost every time I launch but it cuts a consistent 1.59 60'. Yes take your front sway bar off,get a tubular k-member/a-arms,sra with a big rear sway bar,find some skinnies for the front and some 15" rims for the back with a 275 dr or slicks and drop the hammer from about 5500 and you should see day light under the fronts.

03svtcobra · September 17th, 2009, 07:30 AM

well the 60 ft sucked because i didnt wanna dump the clutch at 4k with irs if i had a built sra i would i could see an easy 1.6 1.7 60 ft if i had a good rear end

mounder27 · September 20th, 2009, 02:42 AM

dump the clutch and smash the gas, i cut 1.6's and 1.7's all day long with slcks, just the tires hot enough so they are sticky obviosly....

C MY 4D · September 20th, 2009, 03:06 AM

Termis are heavy in the front. Good luck on pulling a tire. This is a picture of mine cutting low 1.6s. I still haven't pulled a tire yet.
