you cant expect to learn how to drive on street tire's over night.

you will need a lot of passes to learn how to drive the car on street tires.

get some M.T. ET street radial's and be done with it. Im with 99GT, why try for a 2.0 60' when you can get a faster et, and "easier" better launch with some better tires?!

You need seat time mainly if you wanna keep with the street tire's.

if your going with 4.10's it's going to make it A LOT harder to launch. With quality tire's (dont get nitto crap) you can really dial it in.

my best launch's are around 4000rpm and i almost dump the clutch and stab the throttle before i pass the light's. but 5.0's are a little different.
