Default What E.Ts should I be lookin at?

I went to the track after it had been drizzling all day muggy as hell and ended up with the best of 13.4 @ 107 on a 2.3 60' sidestepping at 2k on 555r's. What do you guys think the car will do? I should pick up some mph on a better day out right?

1.8 should be very attainable with stock suspension. I think my first 12 pass was like a 1.82 60 ft on stock susp. You will be very surprised when you get some good sticky tires and leave in the 4k range. GL

Your car should be in the 12.5 range if you can get it to hook. Remember every tenth off the 60" is 2tenths at the big end. If you cut a 1.8-1.9 60" you should be in the 12.5 range.

hell 12.9 would be good at this point. hoping to trap a little closer to 110 when i get out there on a day that with less rain and isn't so muggy. and they actually prep the track. lmao

i have nitto 555r,s and a 6speed car also and got 1.8 60 ft. it just takes practice,
you have to heat up the nittos pretty good for them to hook

Haven't been back yet still raining everyday. Next time I go will be on a 315 nitto dr instead of a 275 and see if that helps if I can get ahold of them. If not I'll be on the 555 street tire 285/40/17

I have Nitto555R's on my car and have found you have to heat them up more then a lot of other tires (Should have edited this into my above post)
