It's been great so far! Best has been a 12.87 @ 110 fighting for traction. I'd be down there in the low 12s with you but as it stands right now I'm spinning into 4th. :icon18:

Though I'm on the stock Pirelli 255s so I'm thinking I may go the RE-11 or NT01 route next spring, especially after seeing how these RE-11s worked out for you at the track.

Anyways, keep up the good work man. I know you have 11s in you with a really sticky tire! Let's just see how long the diff/axles hold up. Someone's got to put them to the test!!!!!!!!

Don't do the NT-01's on the street as the noise will kill you! Great hard wearing track tire but just howl brutally on the street. Get the RE-11's or the NT-05's.

Oops, I did mean NT-05, not NT-01. :facepalm: Thanks for the catch. :tup:

I'm secretly hoping J has a set of ET Streets and skinnies at the ready to make a run at 11s N/A. :D

DO IT J! I want to see your Z doing this:

I asked the officals at my track if i could run the sports spare tire on my car and they said no. 18 x 4 rim. There is a a radial tire that fits it. 170, 60 , 18.
Im looking for a sport package spare tire rim.
The guy at my track has a dodge srt wagon with a 6.1 L. with a SC on it and he run's 11.1's in the 1/4. He runs a 17 inch rim with a spacer. They have a thing about cars running spacers on them as well but todate they have let him run them.
