Default 1st time using drag radials...New PB

Today did my 1st runs on runs on drag radials (M&H) at the 1/8 mile track. Car hooked fine, but the 275/50/17 might be too tall. Oh! well beats street tires.
1st run I launched at 3500 RPMs
60' 1.913
1/8 8.841 at 79.4
DA was about 2500' so corrected time is 8.54 at 82.xxx

Fastest run was
Launch at 4500 RPMs
60' 1.819
1/8 8.69 at 79.397
DA was about 2650 corrected time 8.412 at 82.XXX

well that size if very close to the stock diameter, it's just slightly bigger. so unless you're trying to change your overall gearing that's the right size.

1.8 60' is nice, can't wait for when I get my new rims and DR's
