It's been great so far! Best has been a 12.87 @ 110 fighting for traction. I'd be down there in the low 12s with you but as it stands right now I'm spinning into 4th.

Though I'm on the stock Pirelli 255s so I'm thinking I may go the RE-11 or NT01 route next spring, especially after seeing how these RE-11s worked out for you at the track.

Anyways, keep up the good work man. I know you have 11s in you with a really sticky tire! Let's just see how long the diff/axles hold up. Someone's got to put them to the test!!!!!!!!

Don't do the NT-01's on the street as the noise will kill you! Great hard wearing track tire but just howl brutally on the street. Get the RE-11's or the NT-05's.

Oops, I did mean NT-05, not NT-01. Thanks for the catch.

I'm secretly hoping J has a set of ET Streets and skinnies at the ready to make a run at 11s N/A.

DO IT J! I want to see your Z doing this:




I second that. I'm digging the NA track runs.

I asked the officals at my track if i could run the sports spare tire on my car and they said no. 18 x 4 rim. There is a a radial tire that fits it. 170, 60 , 18.
Im looking for a sport package spare tire rim.
The guy at my track has a dodge srt wagon with a 6.1 L. with a SC on it and he run's 11.1's in the 1/4. He runs a 17 inch rim with a spacer. They have a thing about cars running spacers on them as well but todate they have let him run them.
