my best 60ft on RE-11's is 2.11. this is a **** 1/8th mile known for horrible traction though. to compare, a muscle car with drag radials did a 1.89 60ft against me. best times were after spinning in the water before launch. was running 27psi in the rear. will drop to 24 next time maybe.

i'm able to hook in 1st with minimum spin. if you heat up some good tires, i don't see why you won't be able to either.

you can always change your gears too and go taller:
