MB, take your stock wheels/tire along too.
Do a couple passes on them.

It would be nice to see the difference between the DR's and RFT's with the traction of ATCO.

I think 11's are a wing and a prayer.
But I think if ATCO is prepped as good as they often are and the weather is nice and cool, I predict you can do:
12.3 @ 111+ mph on the DR's and
12.5 @ 112+ mph on the RFT's

Have fun.

Oh and bring a lightweight friend with some drag racing experience along too.
See what he can do in your car as well.

Good luck......

Well, he's already got the fastest PROcede 335i timeslip posted on DragTimes.com, and that was w/ PROcede v1.4x, so I think w/ v2 and colder temps, he'll break below his current #1 time.

mikenuts · 10-17-2007, 06:13 PM

Ill swing by at 930 - you guys want to put together a mini meet?

Good luck Maxboost. Looking forward to seeing your results.

I just got the 275/40/17 BF Goodrich DR T/A II. I am going to the track On Friday and I will be posting the improvements. Before I was getting a 2.0 60', I am hoping for a solid 1.8sec 60' or even a 1.7 sec 60'.

If you wait until Friday night I will be posting my new times. I haven't seen many people with the DR T/A II(they are too new).

I have a Sport package 335i so my car has 18" rims but I purchased a separate set of two 17" Kosei rims for the 275's. Stay tune.

only .2 diff on drag radials he should get at least a .5 sec advantage if not more!!!!

Sniz · 10-17-2007, 07:01 PM

I'll be really impressed if he pulls a 12.5 on the stock RFT!

Goodluck man, tear it up.

What size width Kosei rim did you get??? 9, 9.5, or 10???? How much did they set you back and from where? I am really thinking about 17's too, just to get an additional 1" of tire flex. Also, how are the DR T/A II's different??

No way.
Not on a track like ATCO.
It's already prepped well and you can launch pretty hard with regular street tires.
I don't know of any track where our cars would benefit .5 seconds in the 1/4 mile simply by having DR's on.

You are new to drag racing....and don't know ATCO.

Max got a 12.7 there on stock Runflats with v1.47 as his only mod.

It's almost always prepped really well, and therefore very sticky off the line.
You can launch hard there even on the stock runflats and get incredible times.

and IIRC, Max is a big dude (in the 260 lbs range) so imagine what a 150 lbs driver with a 335i could do there.

Our tracks here in So. Cal are barely 1/2 as good (prep wise) and they are all 70+ miles from LA.

Supposed to be cloudy tomorrow and possibly rain. Hopefully not. Doesn't look like the DA will be optimal.

150 lb driver would get around .10 quicker time.

Sucks about the weather.
You don't know that a 150 lbs driver would be .1 second quicker.
I know that old "rule of thumb" that 100 lbs = .1 second.
But that's loosely based.

I've made runs with 150-160lbs passenger in my car and have dropped .2-.25 seconds.
True it would probably be .1-.15 seconds, but it might only be .08 or it could be .2 depends on launch, shift points, etc.
I've been drag racing too much to know that it really depends on the power and weight of each car.
It just would be fun to see what a lighter guy with drag racing experience could get there in a v2.0 335i as well.
