Pete beat me to the punch. Good day of racing today so I had to go and try my luck. JimBone's car is a monster. He said he was impressed with the hoosiers all around and said he may pick up a set. As for the sandbox, tonight was the night. First pass I blew the all-seasons off the wheels and didn't even continue my run. Second pass I bogged my launch but just went for it to get a trap speed of 130.8. And as for the last pass (don't mind the crappy 60ft), i raised the 2 step a little and......

Ben what are you launching at? I've been playing around a bit in the lot at work and found 5800 RPM is a good spot sometimes but I bog a bit if I slip it too fast with the pucked clutch.
Shaw PM me if you want about the wheels.

Josh, that is what I ended up setting my 2 step at. It was around 5500 and it bogged but I brought it up to 5800 and it spun but with the track being cold and the prep being horrible. I'd say 5800 is good for street tires

Ray, it was the famous sandy the sandmonster

I was going to eventually sell mine for $400 coated but I've seen untouched enkeis go for around $300-$400 on average. Kind of cheap IMO.
