Default 10 second pass with radials on a 6 speed
I finally did it. 10.8 @126 with a 1.56 sixty.

Launched her at 6,500 and did the longest burnout ever. Dead hooked and jumped out of there like a scalded cat. She kind of went left a little but I stayed with it.

ET Street R 275-50-15

I am pretty proud, 6 speed cars are hard to launch on a radial.

Man that's what it's all about right there. As said, pure emotion. Having a great time. Just do what you do at the line. If it's singing to magic in the air. Then let it rip. Lmao. Nice job. I love seeing people having a good time like that.

Thanks! These tires have been great. I drive them on the street all the time, I am guessing I have 1,500 miles on them.
