These tires are great! They grip so well (i had decent 60ft times to proove). I drop the clutch anywhere from 2000-3000rpm, they spin the slightest bit, and then grip. Im buying another set when these go.

Great times! I wish my motor wasn't in the pig I have, then maybe I could feel some speed out of it.

My car is alot lighter than your coupe. Add some bolt ons and a lightened flywheel and it will fly!
