Default Goat needs slicks :(



Reaction-----.1350
60 -----------2.4899
330----------6.4989
ET@594ft----9.0500

1/4 MPH-----108.68


I went to redneck raceway tonight. I'm on street tires so I was expecting to pull mid 13s. They didn't prep the track and I couldn't get any traction. I just kept spinning through the first 3 gears. I resorted to turning the boost down to 10 then hitting the HI(23) button in third. It helped but I still ran shitty times. I couldn't really launch, basically I just had to roll into it I'm going to look into getting some drag radials or slicks for next year. She's got the power, I just need to hook it.

A better set of tires, a better 60', and you're definitely in the 13.xx's.

I knew I'd need drag radials I just don't have the monies right now. Obviously my 60 sucks because of the lack of traction. It was like driving on grease. I get more grip on the street.

I did the same thing, (D16z6 @ 11psi) my best 1/4 was a 14.4 @ 105...


I was on falken Azenia Drag radials 205 wide. They were pretty much worthless...
