Hey Sleek,
Ive been to the track on Nt05R's drag radials.. Launching it at 5800rpm with no traction loss, (dropping the clutch) but only managing a 1.83 60ft. Pushing about 620rwhp. 18' wheels all around tho, and tires are 285/40-18 at 14psi (i tried 16psi, 18 psi to).
I figured that the higher I launched at, the better my time would get. So i try increasing my rpm launch all the way down from 5500 to 5900. At 5900, it's when I started to lose traction on 1st gear.
Anyway, I just bought stock TT wheels for the rear. Im looking at MT ET Streets, but.. there HAS TO BE SOMETHING BETTER out there.. My fender are rolled, and i run 18x10 right now. So, the bigger tire the better. What do you think of Hoosier QTP? Do they make a size taht would fit my car?
Any other hints, on improving 60ft?
IVe got a 5-speed, 620rwhp at 24psi. My best time was 11.8 @ 120mph. A civic with sleeks, did an 11.2 at 120mph as well! but his 60ft was 1.55.. So i've got the power, but not the 60ft yet.
