Maybe some drag radials on some wide azz wheels along with a good driver will result in better times. Though there's only one person on here determined to make their 370Z a drag racing car and GT-R's are no where near having any nightmares yet :icon17:
There's a lot that goes into traction beyond just bolting on wider tires.

Yeah I realize that, but it's a decent first step usually, right?

If your goal is to learn what the second step is, I suppose it works:icon17:

Excuse me, sir, but my 370z in Forza Motorsports was faster than a Z06 with all the mods I put on. And that game's a simulation of real life. :cool:
that's because you added the trailer home mod to your corvette. it's tough to corner with a mobile home on the back.

Tell me about it.... I bet most couldnt read the flow chart on a turbo to size correctly for what they are trying to accomplish. Or better yet even know that turbo's have flow charts...
