If you arn't all ready in the 12's then i would say you need to practice more. Perhaps you need new sticky tires. What MPH are you trapping at?

I've never ran them honestly, but Mickey thompson makes the best drag radial hands down. I am sure the nitto's are much better over a regular tire. For all out performance it wouldn't be my first choice though. If you want a better tire, that you can get a few more miles out of then Nitto might be the choice for you.

I say you run on dummy doughnut spares in the rear... And video tape it too!!![8D] That would be a great showing, you'd light those things up the whole 1/4...

Yes that cracker has videos, and his car is faster than your average bear. However, I pulled 1.66 short times on 555r's and stock suspension. Eat that.....crack er.

Edit: on video!
