New times for the turbo R on street tires
well I got one clean pass tonight and that was the one I was looking for all year.
11.981@117.64mph on street tires with a 1.936 60ft
my friend got a vid so I will post it as soon as he gets it uploaded

1.936
not the best 60 but it was just so smooth that pass. a slight wheel hop at the top of 1st then just hooked and went. smoothest pass I have ever made in the car. my 1/8 time was 7.669 which really impressed me but the turbo just doesn't have enough to keep up topend. just a smooth 1-2 shift cut .4 off my previous best 1/8 mile was only one MPH slower in the 1/8 on this pass than that one

I agree. Drag radials with a treadwear rating of zero and a tread depth when new of 5/32" aren't street tires.
Nice time, just the same.
