Traction below 40MPH is a joke with my car with 315s. I cannot imagine the annoyance of trying to tame that beast on 305s. DR tires and more miles needed ASAP.

Yeah... unless the temperature is 60* or above I have issues with traction from 1st all the way to the top of 3rd (100mph)... Once I hit 4th I'm good. Stupid 315 drag radials and their ****ty ability to hook. Clearly has nothing to do with the 760rwhp in a 3100lb car.

Exactly Kerns.

I knew you'd understand eventually.

To be fair, it's probably 20% tires, 20% too much power, and 60% me.
