60 foot times

What is a realistic 60 foot time on old blacktop with stock f-1's.
praticing my 60 foots on a backroad and am wondering what a good number to shoot for is. Please not what 60 foot times you can pull on a drag track. Actually street 60 foot times.

Thanks

I pull 2.0 Sec on track with slicks. Bone Stock. 2.15 to 2.4 with F-1'a (on track). I am pretty sure I pull better on street (less wheel spin, so I'd bet 2.1 on the street with F-1's

On Fridays at my track they dont treat it well. Its worse than the street at times. I launch on my 22's or my F1's how I would when I um "STREET PLAY" and get around a 1.9x 60 foor time. On race days I average low 1.7x's and high 1.6x's....

i roughly turn 1.9 and 2.0 at a poorly prepped track on f1s. i hook alot better on the street than i do at the track on most occasions. so id say around the same numbers.

I cant seem to get below 2.23 or 2.25 norm for me my f1s are about half gone and I have no traction devices. Do you think some slapper bars or other would help me lower those numbers?

About a 1.8 to 1.9 for me on street is a good guess.

60's

my best 60 is 2.04 at the track. Haven't ran when the track has been prepped well, only on street nights when they don't do crap. On the street, my truck takes right off nicely. I've experimented with tire pressure at the track. My best run was at 26 lbs. Next time up I'm gonna drop it a little more and see what happens.

I'm really tempted to put on my 16's michelin alpine II's i use in the winter and see how it runs. That would be quite ammusing. Those thing grip awesome on the street, and they are way narrower than the f1's.
