Ok so the time has come.. Two more days.. Going this Sunday to get my redemption.. Wish me luck.. I'd like to see a 9.4 at least if I get a good launch. Maybe a 2 second 60ft.. I'll post my numbers on Sunday

8.9s when I get drag radials??? Anybody's input?? I'm curious, cause all the really powerfull cars just rip off the line no problem.. So will drag radials allow me to just floor it off the line or do our cars still spin bad with radials???

drag radials will help, but at the risk of hurting the trans. i went 2.08 on my daily driver tires that are in much need of replacement in the GXP. i went 1.9 60' on street tires in my GTP a few times. just clean the tires off by doing a small dry burn out, literally 10ft maybe. i also went 9.0 on the 2.08 run so drag radials should easily put you in the 8.9-9.0 range.

Wow that's funny.. Cuz I was doing that.. Skipping water box and doing small little "floor it" burn outs.. But actually my two best times of the day were driving thru the water and doing small ebrake burnouts.. Not smoking them, but cleaning then off and warming them
I pretty much got the launch perfect I thought.. But 60s were only 2.3s and 2.4s.. Im guessing I'll get better next trip l.. Soon to be modding tho also.. got my stock runs... And now it's time to mod!!
Hell I should start in the tranny first but I think I'm getting tires first!!! Intake.. Tune.. And then who knows.. Cartuning turbo?? BUY A 06 STS-V!! Hahaha D3 upgrades ;-)
