I was hoping it might be possible with what I have and some brake bias and tire pressure tuning. I do have 90/10 drag shocks. It would be prettu neat tp pull it off. That is pretty darn quick to be able to go 0-100-0. If you sit and think about it, that is crazy fast. Most production auto's cannot do 0-100 in 10 seconds let alone add stopping into the mix.

Any body with a good sticky tire C5 brake ever test stopping distance/ and or time with there car? Should I assume I can get the car to stop at least as good as a C5 Vette? I weight a tad more, I am at about 3550 lbs without driver, but I don't have factory pads or tires. I would that that should be easily possible. I Just then have to find out how fast a C5 accelerates/stops in 0-100-0. If I can do that, I can get a better ball park by just subtracting seconds for it's slow 0-100 time.

Is this called bench stopping instead of bench racing? I need something to give me a goal and hold me over untill spring.

Anybody have super stiff front or rear springs they want to get rid of, Or should I stick with the Eibach's?
