I think you're right, and I think a big reason for that is because nitrous hits with instant hp and tq. Whereas as blower or turbo doesnt hit quite like that. Hence loss of traction much more so with nitrous

You got it haha. I'd love to hit 10s with a full suspension set up and some slicks n/a... but unless it's the perfect d/a I have a feeling I'm going to need nitrous to get there.

Yeah at full weight I cant imagine cracking into the 10's no matter what tire and suspension you run. Small shot of nitrous or some decent weight reduction along with your idea...then it might be possible

1.9x 60ft is actually pretty damn good on street tires IMO. Do you happen to know the DA and temp at the track that day? It's really hard to get a good launch with a high powered manual trans without some real practice, and I really don't want to break my 10 bolt just yet lol
