who does what here???
 

Who streetdrives their stuff and who dragraces it track only??
My car is in a million pieces but Iam motivated to have it done in August somethime.. just trying to figure racer's out here.....

Also?? What is fast to you guys??

i ride my bike on the street but thats a little different, and running 10s is fast to me. my goal is 9s tho

street..... 10.90s are a gofast long term goal

Just got my t/a 2 weeks ago- She hasnt seen the track yet- She'll get there by the end of the Spring though. :-P

I drive my car down and drag race at atco all the time(when it's not breaking something lol) I'm shooting for a 10 second pass, but I consider anything faster than a 10.5 fast.

I had a car that was driven to carvel with kids.. maybe Kmart Car show or Great adventure car show but didn't like that cam2 price to drive it on the streets.... ran a best of 10.97 on the street setup with drag radial..... then with a shot she woke right up.... Going all new Real Fast set up... Street Driving this one is all over...... next street car will be a G body.... but just wanted some feedback heere...... and yes... that number on motor was a wicked street setup.. not real fun.. but a streeter none the less. just expensive for that good gas.

heres the drag radial pass.
 

sidewall wrinkling.... bad azz motor pass..... front driver lifted about 3"

one more with undercarriage painted up...
 

again all motor.....rippin it up.

Nice pics

my car a track only car. gone a best of 10.00@136 N/A

9.10@149 at ****** e-town on a 180 shot

atco in the 8's no problem

My T/A is strictly a DD, no mods. I'm hoping to get my Camaro, its a dedicated race car, finished this summer in between semesters, my father and I are anticipating high 10s. We're building a serious dedicated track car out of his '57 and shootin for low 9s. I'm new to the sport, but it runs in the family haha.

What's fast?

Street: I think a reliable DD car that is well mannered and can pull 12s (high or low) is fast for a street ride. Any of those cars running 9s on streets w/ nothin but tubbed body, drivetrain and drivers seat aren't street cars to me they're street legal race cars lol.
Strip: Anything under 10.99 gets my nod. Again I always think fast is relative, I expect a Vette to outrun a Civic Si you know? But in general terms, numbers are always impressive. And not to advocate rice, because I think rice is different from seriously racing sport compacts not faygo clear lights and neons, if I see one of those nasty turbo CRXs at the strip running 11s I'll admit I'm pretty damn impressed.

Just my .02 8-)

hi MY is a 79 355 sbc race only glide 6000 convertor 538 9 inch 14/32-15 tires3000 lbs 10.39 130 at island in the cool air and in 100 deg air 10.47 - 126 -- but i have a roller buyer for the car - he wants it and offered 6Gs as a roller only so it might be going -- the avatar nova is my sons 68 super gas car with a mild 468 last season it was off the stop 9"35 145 at island --jz

9.35 huh.. nice.. steppin up to a bbc myself... sounds like that nova hauls the mail......I bested 10.97 on motor with that 383.. but it was set up for juice if I set it for raw I probably had mid 70's in it.

I would keep your camaro... gettin harder and harder to find good ones....

my car is a big project, but it is a fast streeter project. i can't afford a truck and trailer plus avng a cool car, so i will stick to streeters. i am not too worried about all the creature comfort stuff so it isn't too hard to go fast :)

Low 12's maybe 11 second pass on a perfect day with new set up. Street, race and Road course set up.

Set up to do everything.

the best street comb we ever built in the shop for a street racer was a boe ty block 3 5/8 stroke 4.155 bore flat piston track ones ( brodix ) flat tappet 536 554 on a 106 center line 750 DP worked to 925 on a victor JR 700 r4 with 410s in a 12 bolt in a 69 camaro on pump gas it ran with 9 inch tires on stock style spring high 10s 125 plus in the quarter in good air -- jz

i try and keep my cars either street or strip only, it gets too expensive to put a street car on the track, or built strip car that can hit the street. i have a 79 camaro that hit 12s once, sbc, nothing spectacular done to it, an all stock 02 z28.
my go-fast car is a rear engine dragster, best of 7.80 @ 171 at atco. ran 7.86 this weekend at island, so im hoping that best might improve this coming weekend at atco with some good air.

my car is a sunday driver that i also run on the track.

Well my car has evolved into a semi trailer queen. I only race at the track. It's legal and I will drive it to local events but it's very poor as far as fuel economy for the really long hauls, although it still has all the power accessories and AC.

I expect to see 11's on street tires, not sure if slicks will give me enough to get into the 10s. Probably won't happen until I step up to a bigger SC before 10s become a reality?

I consider 8's fast, but I like index and bracket racing so I can respect a slower car that does well because of the driver's ability to dial in his car and make the right changes! But I do hate getting beat by old caddies and pick-ups with 17.25 dial in! Those that frequent E-town know what I'm talking about!

I hope to obtain high 12's on my car and I'll be happy.

But these days I tend to think anything that runs sub 13.5 is fast for an almost daily driven street car.

Mine is a DD...I'm only shooting for mid 11's which to me is fast for a street car. Hell, low 12's for a DD is pretty damn respectable.

For a track only car, anything 11.40's and below isn't a bad ride

for a trailered track car, i think 10.00 and better is respectable, for a street car, 11.50.

I just hope my 79 will be able to hit low 13's :lol:

Tia was DD, got the **** beat out of her 24/7, the street was my track (when im not at the actual track), just wish i went to the track before her fatality to get that 13.5 bone stock with catback run with 150k

:lol: bone stock....with a catback....and a cold air intake....and a shifter....
