Curious what a 500hp CC, LB will do in the 1/8th.
How quick/fast is 500hp in the 1/8th?
- Thread starter fast03
- Start date
Lots of variables, but id say between 8.10-8.20 ET. There are lots of different factors though some 500 hp trucks run fast than others for some reason. What is your truck weight /w driver?
Should launch ok I have had 1.9 60's in the quarter. I will hopefully dial in the launch tonight, like to see some 1.8's
Mine did an 8.10 in the 1/8th with a 1.71 60 foot.
I am running 33's and truck is 7400 with me. Will see soon
I went 8.09 @ 84.48mph - 1/8 mile with a 1.74 - 60' at LVMS on heavy ass 20" wheels and tires...on a tune that dynoed at just over 500hp

When I was at LVMS for a midnight madness event I could NOT hook! I was 13.5-13.7 all night with massive wheel hop on every launch... How did you hook?
Sorry for the hijack...
I have a shortbox and my best time was 1.77 60' @ 8.00 1/8 with a weight of 6980lbs
Thanks for the replies
I ran last night and had some issues. Ran the tires at 30psi front and 32psi rears. could not get around the water box so on launch truck spun>defueled then hooked. I need to practice staging as I pushed through the brakes 2x. Best was a [email protected]. Best 60 foot was 1.9. Don't know if it hurts or not but I was still running #1 diesel from Colorado trip. I think there is a 8.3- 8.4 in it easy if I can get it to hook.

Take a look at your brake pads and power steering pump, they'll help the push.
i'm not near 500 hp but i'm going to play with tire pressure tomorrow i ran tonight in 1/4 and i limped tranny at end but my 1/8 mile was 9.0 with a 220 tune in it with a 1.9 60foot my t-bars are lowered and i'm also going to run spring clamps.
Your gonna limp again unless your transmission is built
i let go around 75mph. i'm learning how to launch it and i know it'll limp
