Maybe yours is in the ball park, mine wasn't. Rear end was squatting and unloading the tires bad. Best 60 was a 1.64 leaving on 10lbs or no boost didn't make a difference. That was on a set of used slicks. Brand new ET streets and the car did the exact same thing. If your geometry is close they will hook but if it's way out to lunch no tire will help.
