    Drag Radials

    The only problem I've had with the s/c so far has been the lack of traction.

    Problem solved: 305/45R18 Nitto 555R drag radials.

    Hmmm, meaty!

      Thanks Evil.

      Ever since the s/c install I haven't been able to punch it without lighting up the stock rubber. The first time I punched it with the drag radials on it felt like I was launching off a catapult. These fuckers are awesome!

      I can't wait to line up against the sumbitches that have hole-shot me. :guns:

            Yeah, the s/c install is buried in the 400hp Panther thread.

                I haven't been back to the track with the drag radials on yet. I'm going to see what she does at Milan during MV3 in Detroit in a few weeks.

                She pulled a 13.8 sec @ 101 mph on OEM tires last month with lots of wheel spin off the line at a test and tune. That was with two fat guys in the car. Even with good track prep and extra weight the OEMs tires weren't worth a damn.

                  Yeah, that should drop to a low 13/high 12.

                      Back from Marauderville III in Detroit where she laid down a 12.6 sec 1/4 mile at 109.5 mph at Milan. Not too shabby for high-80's outside. Waiting on cooler weather to see what's she's really capable of.
