    So I took the car to the track last night. I need a set of slicks REAL bad. Couldn't get the car to hook up at all. I would just blow the tires off from the start line until about 130km/h. My best run was with a 2.4 60' :bang:

    I ended up getting 13.6@113 mph spinning til half track. The car is still untuned, im on the ****tiest 225/60/15 street tires you've ever seen, the density altitude was around 5000ft and I'm still not used to driving the damn thing, hahah.

    Hoping when it's tuned with a set of slicks on it I can get high 11's @ 120.

    The MPH is low 12's, with traction you should "definitly be in the 11's

    Once you get traction that will help with knowing where to shift and will therefore increase your mph...

    I gained 3-4 mph just by getting some drag radials, because I finally knew where to shift!
