Default Took the turbo lude to the track with the new setup

Well i went to the track this morning to test out my new setup. Well i think i did pretty good for street tires. The last time i went to the track i was boosting 6 lbs and running some bfg drag radials and i managed to pull off a 14.4@96mph w/ a 2.1 60ft time. This time i was runnin some 16in rotas w/ kumho 712(i think that's the right number), and 9 lbs. All i can say is damn this thing pulls hard. my first run i spun to the top of 3rd and missed 4th but managed to pull off a:

2.51
6.839
10.1@70.4
13.1
15.5@94

My second run i got a better launch and pulled off a:
2.466
6.75
9.9@77
12.66
14.8@102.08

My third run was my best.

2.44
6.64
9.8@77.7
12.44
14.68@102.1

Now all i have to do is put on my slicks and and i'll be headed back there next week. I think if i can pull off a ~1.8-60ft time i can easily pull off a mid to high 13 sec.

heh, when did you turbo charge your car? I always remember seeing in your sig 15.6 time.

Well, it looks like a big improvement in power. From what, 86mph to 102mph with the turbo. Your 60' times could improve a lot more, look to get atleast around a 2.2 60 ft time and i'm sure you could be swimmin in 13's.
