You gonna track it a lot this year?

Nope, probably a few times. The only time I had the car out was this past fall and was struggling for traction bad. 2 reasons, first I was being a pussy about doing a burnout without a line lock and second was the R888R’s in a 285/35R20 was doing me no favors. Best run was my first run...12.0 at 130mph. The car struggles for traction on the street too and this should help greatly street or strip.

For the drag rears which will be a Mickey Thompson ET Street R in a 305/45R18

For the Twistie rears it will probably be the Toyo R888R in a 305/35R20

For the fronts I am thinking the Kumho Ecsta PS91 in a 285/35R20

Why mismatch the tires? Why not run the toyo’s up front too?

Yeah I know you need to clone your security key is an RF scanner and a Raspberry Pi

You should just keep them in yer faraday purse

I was going to keep this a secret but oh well.....I have 12 battery disconnects strategically located throughout the car that need to be connected in a specific sequence only initiated by retinal scan, my eye to be exact, in order to start the car.

New tires ordered :angrys00ls: I really wanted to go with ET Street R's, but something I didn't account for is how easily those tires flat spot. If I had my extra set of 20" rears this would be an issue, since I don't I am going with a different tire because I am not sure when I am ordering my 20" rears. Either way this will be a huge step in the right direction from where I am at today.
