Thanks guys for all the great comments they are actually firestone firehawk indy 500's they hooked pretty well I think im getting to the point were slicks would be very benifical.The only thing that confuses me as tonight i didnt spin off the line, just a quick slip from 4-5k then some minimal bogging, the track was very sticky tonight no clue why? I should have done a 5500 clutch dump but i dont think my clutch or new rear would have liked that. O ya i forgot that i have 3.23 gears in the my new rear i just put in from an a4 because my posi broke in mine and $400 posi < $100 complete rear end.

3.42's 3.73's 4.10's ... higher you go, the more chance you have of hurting the rear. 2.1 60's are far from great ... trust me get that 60' into the 1.8 range, and you will have the 12 :]

This is true i was bogging and not spinning witch is weird considering. I was thinking mabey 4.10's would help but i think im going to have a hard time finding them with a 2 series carrier that i think the 3.23's have.

I have a full exhaust witch was what woke my car up for the most part, well i do have a flowmastermaster cat back that came on it when i bought the car, but thats not worth mentining because i use the cutout and track times have proven a 3 tenth diffrence between open and closed on my car so i know its restrictive.
restrictive but sounds good lol ... but thats why they make cutouts to race :p work on getting that 60' going, i was cutting 2.0's on bald street tires on a stock stall automatic! hell recently i almost broke a 1.8 with street tires at 40psi, cold!

np i just saw your times after we talked on aol, hmmm maybe i should start investing in some suspension stuff and we might be pretty close, i think other than what im working on right now that it would make the most difference cause my car is real hard to get off the line, some smaller tires would prolly help to either that or get some better 315's, ill prolly get some 555r's on the rear before to long, the sumitumo's along with no suspension work and being lowered is prolly hurting me the worst, also need to get my launching down, sounds like our cars might be pretty even, mine just needs a better driver 
lol thats what practice is for 
, and im getting better prolly go ahead and do the cam i told ya about then get some suspension work SFC's, and LCA's, prolly really need relocation brackets since i lowered my car and i already have a APHR
