I have always heard on low profile tires that air pressure doesnt really matter too much...better off adjusting the camber from what I have been told.

exactly. but i'm cheap right now and dont feel like dropping all the cash for camber arms and whatnot when i just drag race for fun. my money has better uses lol all things considered where i have a pretty damn good 1/4 time, only have intakes/exhaust/tune, and run regualr psi, street tires, full weight, full tank of gas, etc and still win a lot......yea i'm good

no driver mod needed

Oh come on. It's a good time for sure. But I remember one guy here who ran a 12.4 with a 350z with only test pipes and a tune. I think he mentioned it once or twice.

Yeah, if you can get your 60' down a few tenths your time should drop substantially.

mmmmmhmmmm 18x12" rears with some 315 MT et2's on them

dont think the 345s will fit too well or be useful

Yeah, that should hook up pretty well. Will two of them fit in the car to take out to the track?

not a chance nor would i put them in my nice clean car lol i have other vehicles for that

but seriously though i need someone to answer my question on the last page.

what 18"xwide wheels fit on the back of a Z AND clear sport brakes.

found ROTA 18x12's cheap but A. they have a rep for breaking and B. i heard they dont clear our sport breaks.

I am way over due for driver mod. When I had my mustang I did a 12.8@126
Lol

I feel for you man, I ran 13.1 but only at 107 MPH I was all over the place and the AWD kicking till the 1/2 mark didn't help either. Gears 1-2 where completely pointless for me

This is funny. I was reading and thinking, sounds just like Qualcomm, then noticed you are also in SD. That track is a very slow 1/8th. I have cut a 1.9 60' there in stock trim, but normally I am around 2. Not very good.

On low profile tires letting out air is pretty much pointless. Don't bother with a huge burn out either... Just a quick spin to clean off debris and water.

i'm able to hook in 1st with minimum spin. if you heat up some good tires, i don't see why you won't be able to either.

you can always change your gears too and go taller:

WTT Your 6MT pumpkin for my 7AT pumpkin

I got a 1.78 60ft with a pair of $70 Pep Boys' tires on a good sticky night at the track (Mustang), even power shifted 2nd gear and did a 12.01 ET (116 mph). Spent the rest of the night trying to get into the 11's with these tires and couldn't do it. It took a week for my clutch to feel right again after all that feathering out of 1st. Cut the heads and added some slicks and got a half a second quicker and 4 mph.
