Best way to launch GS-C's
 

Im going to be going to the track for the last couple times in a week or 2 and would really like to get my 60's down. Right now I have lid, !FRA, TB Bypass, ported TB, polished MAF, bump stop, and backseats and spare gone. Other than that stock clutch and GS-C's on the back. I run them around 22-24psi and give them a few spins on the track. most of my 60' are 2.1 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />

any suggestions guys? I know better is possible..

Best way to launch GS-C's is off the side of an aircraft carrier. Those POS tires aren't worth the rubber they're made with.

Best thing I can tell ya..avoid all water...only turn them over a couple times to clean'em off and learn how to feather the throttle...untill you get real tires all ur gonna do is <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

Wow you just really hate them! But ive heard of people getting below 2s easily. Just wanted to know how in the world to shave a few tenths off my 60' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" />

You should be able to get sub 2.0's.
I will be testing mine out next time I go to the track. They are 315/35/17 GSC's.
My best advice is to give just enough throttle to where they don't spin, then ease into the gas until you feel confident they can handle WOT.

I used to love taking my car to the track and spinning all over the place with the 16" GS-C's, my best 60 ft with them was a 1.97. I usually left at idle or just slighly above 1,000 rpm and then would "back pedal", granny shift 2nd then go all out in 3rd and 4th. My best with heads/cam was a 12.21 @ 119.93 mph - race weight 3,490 lbs. If you've got some spare money Nitto drag radials are a worth while investment.

I would spare money for nittos but this is also a daily driver. After these wear out I was thinking about the BFG KD's or KDW's. Would you all suggest feathering the blutch over dropping it for these tires?

Re: Best way to launch GS-C's
 

The Nittos work great for daily driven vehicles as long as your not racing around in the rain, they lasted me for about 8k-9k miles. More then likely with the other tires you are suggesting you would have to feather the clutch.
