I am getting ready to head out to the track for the first time.
My 19's with tires weight about 55lbs. I know if I had stock wheels with some sticky tires, and a good launch I could break into mid 14's...
So, I am wondering what times to expect in the 1/4 mile, so i dont leave the track dissappointed...

 

heh. good luck with that one.

i cant even spin my tires with 19s + Nittos.

 

CLS-D,
You goin to Ennis tonight?

 

YEAH CLS-D? You goin to Ennis????

Let us know! I'll meet you down there if you're going.

 

Soopa, you can't spin your 19"s?????? and can roast mine aren't they the same weight???????

 

You will be very disappointed, unless you take out your stereo equip.

 

I am going next Friday, if any of yous guys want to go, we meet
up...
I can spin my tires just fine, I dont know how far will the rims will set me back...

 

Ohh crap, next Friday? My sister gets married next Sat, but I should be able to make it.

Umm, I just looked at the Texasmotorplex.com website, and they don't show anything for next Friday. Are you going to Ennis or somewhere else?

Yeah, Enis was where I planned on going, I thought they had an event every weekend, but I guess b/c the season is over, they
are cutting down on the event days. I see the next one is two weeks from now, I'll try to make it to that one....
So, if you want to go we can arrange the meet...

 

sweet, I'll be there. the week after next works out better for me. Hopefully some of those other chumps will show up too. :P

Just so ya know, this isn't the ultimate street night which goes from 9:00-2:00am. And this one is a bit more expensive, but they do have the boards on, which is a good thing (I guess).

 

Nicky, P7000's arent as sticky as Nitto's...

Nitto's will not let go of the road.


But their not as good in rain/snow as P7000's are.

BUT OH MY GOD DO THEY GRIP ASPHALT!!!

 

I dunno soopa, I can break my tires and I've got toyos :-/

 

ya i can break them but they just grip up again.

im telling you Nittos are sticky fucking tires...

i havent had toyos before. so i cant compare... but nittos are about 10x stickier then P7000's

 

Ohh, well... yeah, I'm in the same boat, they break and then hook back up.

 

P7000's have a very soft compound and wear out pretty quickly,
but they pretty sticky 2... My friend has them on his Maxima, I drove his car a few times and I think they grip pretty good...

Mantis, it's on then...

 

Sounds good Mantis, I've been wanting to go to one of those highschool nights cause they show times. And the prices are cheaper for me cause I got my school ID.

 

I got a school ID too! :P

 

no they don't...I got like 40,000 Miles outta mine...what are you talking about?

and trust, my car spins it's tires a lot easier than soopa's car and it's 70 pound wheels! Christ kid, no wonder you can't spin your tires!

 

i think p7000's suck.


and so did pirelli... which is why they recently changed the compound.
