Day at PIR?
So anyways who's all going to be running at the track this year??
It's not a wise idea to run street tires at the track with a 6 speed and some decent power. I tried like hell to run 11's on street tires and I will just say it is very dangerous. A 400 + rwhp m6 will spin the tires through 3rd gear. 4.11's and a 10 bolt with a sticky tire = bye bye 10 bolt. A 6 speed car needs a good bias ply drag slick to have a good launch, unless you have a ton of drag orientied suspension mods.

Yeah I broke two 10 bolt's before I got the 9" and the first time was under bolt on power. I don't really think a taller gear would help my car, I think it is more so I need a taller tire with more sidewall to flex and also another 2" on each side would help. Right now I am only running a 26" slick with an 8.5" contact patch.
Ok i guess i have a super 10 bolt then. Cuz i have bolt ons and head and cam and drs and i launch the **** out of mine. It dead hooks at 4k but at 4.5k he tires were spinning pretty bad. But i did that in colder weather. Im pretty sure its cuz i release tye clutch instead of just sliding my foot off
