Well when you finally do get traction those trap speeds will drop along with those ets. Just look at my motor times

Bias Ply Mickey Thompson ET Streets preferably on a 15" rim so you get the benefit of the increased sidewall.

What DR. everytime i tried my 275/17 mickeys at 12psi i spun like crazy. tried it a few different times at the track. Always had the best 60s at 17psi.

M-T 275-40/17, i got a 1.71 60' on my 12.13 pass.

chad05gt · November 23rd, 2008, 09:48 PM

Had my wheel/gear combo good before cams; those extra rpm making me pass at or a lil below 6K hurts.

It had also been since July... seat time before I know for sure... I need a short throw for TR6060 BAD.

114 for a 4v on the motor is sick. Your car will go 11.70s or 80s with some tire. I did 11.99 at 114... but the traps good for more.
