Yeah I hear ya' that. Its tough to get away from all that wheel spin on stock tires... Thats a huge difference, I might have to get some slicks.

Yeah, the Stage 0 car is running BFG T/A Drag Radials and I think they might have a couple weeks left in them... When Kenny tests cars, he really does test cars..

He ran a 9.1 on drag radials? Not very impressive if you ask me

Learn how to not break the quote tags.. ;)

ZPI were mostly Subaru guys, now moving to Scions.. It's a big culture shock to go from doing 4k dumps with an AWD car and just going like the wind, to trying to launch a turbo FWD car with 250 ft/lb of torque..

With instant tq stock clutch no heat cycle on the tires I think the times were pretty good considering the 2.360ft

With out heating up the tires the drag radials are really no better than your average z rated street tire. This should be an average time that our customers could duplicate with a Stage 0 car. Rember 82-83 mph is not to shabby for a brand new car with less than 20k invested.
