Trip To Brenspeed For Goodies!
#12
Can't speak for Blacksmoke, but I will say this; Any attempt at WOT, or anything close, in 1st gear is a waste of time. Any attempt at getting into boost in 1st is useless. The tires just spin. 2nd fishtails for quite a while, & 3rd, & 4th pull like crazy. I'm now planning on getting my rear rims widened & getting some 325 Michelins.

And if you think it's fun now, do a blower upgrade!!

I've got 19 X 9.5" wheels on it, & there's not a whole lot of tire choices out there. M/T makes a 305/30 DR that I could try, but they're only rated at around 5k miles.
The wider rims & 325 tires would be for looks too.

steve, you are always running your car with drag radial or it is only at the track, if you DD with them everyday, at what psi you run the DR, im guessing any sign of rain mean you cant really drive her, isnt drag radial very nervous while driving on the highway at 60-80 mph? i remember driving my gt supercharged to the 1hour away drag track and man that was a very stressing trip, the back was slowly moving left and right and sliding for no reason.
