Pontiac G8 Drag Strip Run

Our Pedderised, ProCharged Corsa equipped G8 make 480 RWHP. The OE Wheels and Tires are bit under size. Running at the strip with the traction control on the car still rips loose on the up shifts -- even when I try to moderate the throttle at the point of the up shift. Our best runs are 12.7 seconds -- even running with a light throttle. We will upgrade the tires and wheels very soon and expect to run very low 12s with street tires.

awesome...possible low 12's with slicks? Congrats!

That is the plan

[BGP1965]

We want to be a 12 second car on the strip as a daily driver, autocross, road course all purpose vehicle. That rules out special tires for road course or drag strip use.

That said, not spinning the first 330+ feet with DRs or slicks we would already be there.

lol... No bull

new tires and maybe a better suspension will get you low to mid 12's easy. top speed shows ur fast but your 60 foot time means no traction

you're so stupid it's painful. do some research before talking, obviously you don't know what you're talking about.

PS, even if you were right it's no reason to act like a child, pussy.

A 2004 mach 1 with only a 4.6 can get 400 easy with some bolt ons bitch

[odst117]

Dumbass they did it for fuel efficiency. You can easily get them to 400+ hp with minor upgrades, and you can find the car for 25k.

STFU

[Euphorica]

lol not quite 15 ft

[mustangmikeca]

Only 360Hp froma 6.0L V8? GM SUCKS DICK, HOPE THEY GO BANKRUPT
