The car should be good for identical times (at least) that you ran (11.9x/11.8x) with a better tire/launch. I only really got 2 good runs in, and they were literally the first two runs that I/the car have ever been down the track. I should really have been going 1.8s on the nittos, but the traction was just not there (the track) after my first two runs.
The first two I was just wanting to get a soild clean run in, with no hard launch. I just took the RPM up to 2000, and released the clutch while feathering the pedal till it the clutch was all the way out, and the pinned it. I am sure a 3000~ RPM launch would have resulted in a 1.8~ and a much better time.
Very nice.
Every video you post, you miss gears & now you miss gears at the track? What is the deal man?

I am scared to break that 8.8 2+ hours from the track though. I thought of trying some MTs or BFGs but with the weak as rearend I don't want to end up with a huge tow bill to get it back to the house.

I'm going to the track, gonna launch the @#$% out of it. If I break something in the rear, it will just force me to get a built rear, or else I cant drive it. I will continue to break things over time, replacing the weak link each time. And pretty soon, I'll have a badass drivetrain! The stock clutch and a 100k mile T-45 are gonna LOVE IT.
