    Got ONE pass, so haven't had time to play with launching, etc and realized after I ran I forgot to turn traction control off.

    Eighth mile.
    RT 1.105 terrible
    60' 2.007
    330' 5.453
    594' 7.789
    ET 8.304

    sweet!! You might find that all you do is spin the tires with launch control

    On our Scat it is Launch Control.

    and we have Park Assist.

    Launch control.

    I am pricing some Nitto NT05 Drag Radial in a 315/35/20 . Means I need another race 20x11 rim.

    the money spent just adds up quickly doesn't it?

    all though many people go to a smaller rim with more side wall for their track wheels with drag radials.

    True, how much it'd help these, not sure...now a 700+ HP Hellcat maybe, but I still want some looks if I drive on these for some 'legal' street races.
