God, I am awful at street tire launches. Years of slicks on FWD and AWD cars made me street tire retarded. I swear high 1.7's as the absolute best I can do on street tires

Im guessing its all in the clutch. I ran Zri this summer, I had one 1.66 the rest were 1.75-1.8... I have a POS act 6 puck though so launching it was kinda tuff.

Yeah its definitely in the clutch. The majority of these street tires are capable of a high 1.5 60' with good clutch modulation and the right tire pressure. It just takes time.
