I was interested in seeing what the PT could do with a few bolt on's and a set of drag radials, so after weeks of contemplating, I gave in and purchased a set of BFG G-Force Drag Radials. I had a chance to test them out today at the drag strip.
I ran the car after arriving at the track with the drag radials at 37 PSI and pulled a 60' of 2.3 and a 1/4 mile of 14.5 @95 for a baseline run.
The weather was around 75-77 degrees. My modifications (outside of the drag radials) include Stage 1, a 2.5" Heartthrob Exhaust, and a K&N FIPK.
Here are a few results, all run with the traction control off:
Run 1, At 28.5 PSI:
60' : 2.104
1/4 : 14.233 @ 97.96 MPH
Run 2, At 26.5 PSI:
60' : 2.099
1/4 : 14.275 @ 96.59
Run 3, At 23.5 PSI:
60' : 2.074
1/4 : 14.197 @96.44
All in all, I'd say the PT had a great day!
