Hey Tom.
I'll have to check.
I'll be willing to bet if they did, my elapsed time will be misreble since I ran with PS2s and spun for a good portion of the first 1/8 mile .
Someone got a video of the run. I have to track it down. Shows me trying to peddle it with the street tires.
I'll have to check.

I suspect that the M/T's may suffer from the same inherent problem, as they also do not have a speed rating (no Y or Z rating). You have to think that a 9 second car running drag radials may hit 150mph in a 1/4 mile run. The tires are only experiencing high heat for 9 seconds. In your mile run, the tires will be running under high heat conditions for about 25 seconds. I would probably err on the side of caution and go with the PS2's. You probably wouldn't want the drag radials blistering at 190+mph.

No offense to SGC, but is this for real?? Did he really pick up 17 mph in trap speed (from stock) from tuning, intake, etc??? I think I read on here he was running stock boost and stock turbos. Also, I think I recall reading this car was running nitrous.

No Nitrous but a long list of mods.
