    12s this time. Need to aim for 11s next time haha as confidence increased so did wheel spin and my inability to get of the limiter in second haha

    Thanks for the kind words Greg

    Unless you are an expert pedaller (and I'm not saying you're not ), street tyres will be your limiting factor, no matter wide they are under those massif guards

    You will be blown away by the difference even switching to a Mickey Thompson ET Street in a smaller width than you have now.

    Go get 'em!

    Haha I know but my goals are to get there in full street trim and street tyres on the 19s.

    I'm about to order a set of rears and debating about getting a set of the michelin pilot sport semi slick as I can get them in a 345.

    I also have a set of 16s for MTs but I want to hit tye target first

    What will it prove Nathan? DOT approved treaded tyres are still street legal, so hardly takes away any merit from a quick time?

    Surely building a heavy car with 500 jiggawatts, then trying to make it dance on tyres not meant for the purpose is like a heavyweight boxer trying to fight in Michael Jackson gloves?



    Just do it
