My WS6 wouldn't even sqeak a tire on shifts. It would lay waste to mustangs with similar power/weight simply because on the 1-2 shift they lost a car-length that they never came back from. You need good tires for the street, too!
The PZeros do really well on the street, they just don't hook up on track. The hop is pretty bad and costing me a lot of time. I'd probably run 12.60s without it.

The problem is with the soft factory lower and upper control arm bushings. I replaced the lowers but still haven't done the upper yet. I'll be adding an adjustable UCA and some LCA relocation brackets (for a more aggressive LCA angle to increase traction) and should be golden.

I'm also picking up a pair of rear wheels for some sticky drag tires.
