    But I am 100% with you, that I personally need 6k plus RPM revs before I slip my clutch.

    This is considered bad for me....little slow with my left foot on 3rd to 4th.

    Nothing Beats M/T ET Street " DRAG RADIALS " 275x45x17 rules all
    I too switched to ET STREET RADIALS but i didnt like them for the track. I would have to do a long burnout to get them to hook and that just kills th etread on them. IMO the ET STREETS are much better for the track, DR for the street.

    LOL your right my bogs are nasty, but I never cut a 1.79 or slower 60#

    Agreed

    Bias Ply version can handle the little to almost NON prep tracks far better than the DR's, but if you do have an event with serious prep...a long burnout actually makes the bog worse / learned the hard way.

    I still cant beat the 1.56 short time of the DR's....The Bias Ply tires requires a seriously fast release of the clutch which I want to avoid.


    what gears do you have by chance?

    Only once and never duplicated...all others are 1.57 and up state zip codes.

    3.73's? Got more power or something?

    4.10's help off the line but sucks at the top end.

    well i hope i have more power when im done. got a bigger lower and im hoping to offset the more boost with headers. that and some weight reduction im hoping to get alittle more mph out of my 26" tires. im hoping to be making as much boost as i did at sea level.
