Drag times
Yeah, I got similar 60' during my 2.0's only venture to a drag strip.
Bloody amazing 16.5@86mph (can you imagine my excitement?). I think my 60'
were from 2.4-2.6. You know your tires suck ass when they are named after
shitty cigarettes (Doral).
If I don't hit a 14 the next time out I'm gonna be slightly peeved, with the
snail-shaped thing and whatnot. Sean, what did your 82 go in the 1/4? Had
no idea you had ever run it.
