On saturday at the QTP event in Jersey my 98' with 92,000 miles ran 13.26 @ 105.8 with a 2.079 60' on Kumho Ecsta 712's. Only mods are catback, lid, and MAF ends. If I could get it to hook, 12's for sure.
MATEO.........I can't speak for 2002covtz28 but my method was pretty simple.....pump the front tires up to 50.....drop the rears to 20.....do a decent burnout to clean the tires off......make sure your in the groove......bring rpm to 1K and feather it out of the hole....at 1K the tires still spin a bit but it get's the car going. My best 60' using this method was also on Saturday and was a 2.04. If 2002covtZ28 was using the stock RSA's and 16's, that would attribute to his better 60'...less rotating mass and the RSA's are a bit stickier than my Kumho's when heated.
