still having problems w/my 60ft times in my awd, ive tried slipping the clutch and cant get better than 1.90, so now i put this question out there, what is the appx torque split, do i need 4 drag radials or can i get by w/ just 2 or do i need 4, i know they all need to be the same size,225/50r16, does anyone have any comparisons or experience w/the nitto drag radials or the "retreaded soft compound" tires turbotrix has. btw yes im getting modererate wheel spin w/the factory 205/s. guess i need to re learn, im used to launching my 5.0 w/26-8.5-15 drag slicks w/1.65 60fts. thanks in advance. btw when i do upgrade to drag radial im going to do the 16" slipstreams, lighter is faster right ?

Is that your car launching? Are you still on STOCK suspension? OMG

Well, what are your mods? I don't expect a stock 1G to pull 1.6 short times...

And you'll probably want the DR's in the FRONT.
