I'm trying to find out what the fastest known Honda is that runs on street tires? If anyone knows of any fast ones, post times and tires on here. Thanks

 

this has been discussed a million times with no one agreeing on whether the times were real, or really on street tires, or with wheelie bars, or if it was a street car..........

for "some" interior and "somewhat" street driven, the number would be in the high 11's. street tires and no wheelie bars. 11.60-11.90

 

btw, what have you run with your civic?? street tires or slicks. IM me if you don't wanna say publically.

 

Street tires...does that include drag radials?

 

in my opinion it does. they are street legal and many people use them daily.

 

12.019 @ 138MPH ... this was about 3.5yrs ago, and it was with mickey thomson drag radials ... best 60' time ever on that past with a 1.89

mickey thompson drag radials are basically a slick. nice run and for running ET streets on the street, on an import.

Mickey Thompson Drags: Are those the ones that have tread about 1 billionth of an inch?

 

What kind of street tires were used on the 11.60-11.90 passes??

 

Listen up all you fools,The Mickey Thompson ET Street Tire is a Bias Ply Tire not a radial,so please stop calling it drag radial thanks

9psihybird...i believe your the fastest on Drag Radials with that 12.02@130 you busted out not too long ago and you backed it up with some proof

 

Well, I guess what I was looking for was times on radials, or more so, tires the car runs on the street. My DR's never come off the car, they are what I cruise around on, travel and drive to the track with. As far as me being the fastest, it's possible I guess, I just want to know there isn't anyone faster before I claim something like that. I want mid 11's on either 205/50/15's or 225/50/15's and it is very possible for the car. If you know anyone running fast on radials, please post times and tires.

 

i've been over 130 mph in the 1/4 on nitto drag radials in my street car.

 

BFG drag radials is the next best, but I only ran like a 12.4 something wiht slightly higher MPH.

Nitto drags dont grab for nothing.

Greg

 

yea, the nittos blow. i only ran a 12.20 on those. ZERO traction.

the new bfg's are the way to go.

 

BFG'S ARE MY CHOICE


sohc motor, fmax turbo
stock internals

13.0's on 225/50/15's
shifting to late causeing lower track miles cauing lower tims
so i could hit high high 12's on them

13.01 1/4
2.0 60
.556 reaction
107mph friend drove it week later hitting 109 at 13.8
so it has the capability of 12's
well see tonigth what i run on my slicks

 

ok this may be my mind getting too imaginative but u ever thinking about getting ur fenders widened an inch? I remember u metioning how the 225's looked really bulky, if u had the fenders bent out, it would make the tires look better on the car and most people probably wouldnt even notice the slightly widened fenders. as the work was done right ya know. but u gotta run those 225's, slightly taller/wider tire and get a quaiffe. I think u could go 11.50's with the moons in alignment and great driving.

 

My new best is 12.063 @ 127 on the Nitto DR's. 60 foot was 2.210

 

wow, that is good. u should try some BFG's. is this in a hatch?

 

BFG's

 

just curious but would a 16 inch rim equipped with DR's be better than a 15 inch?

 

Yep...It is a hatch.
I worked with Mark Bremmer @ phantom motorsports but I couldn't work for him anymore so I moved to a shop named Modern garage in S.L.C., they treat me well.

 

I'm still undecided about what tire to go with next, it's getting very close to time for some new ones. I am currently on my second set for this year and the car has only been to the track 3 or 4 times hehe.

 

RObby, I got a vid of you beating a Supra when your car was Stock LS with a Drag Kit...Good Chit, sir...See ya at Battle.

Suprdave

 

Hehe, that's an old video! Actually, he pulled me on the top end. My car had a stock (valve cover to oil pan) B18C1 running around 8psi on a T3/T4 through a Conquest intercooler. The Supra had a boost controller, AFC, exhaust, ect. on stock twins. That car now has a T78 and alot of other stuff. Haven't had a chance to run him but ran one with a little more stuff than him and got beat by .2sec but I had 4mph on him, hehe. Also had a run in with another T78 Sup on the highway, won't talk about that though.
