Street Tire Record?

[Long Duk Dong]

I've seen several posts with radial tire questions but nothing that truly answers the question of how quick have folks gone in an AWD (1G,2G, Evo) on regular touring radials, not drag radials. List em up peeps. E.T., MPH, 60-ft, 1/8th mile, size, brand or and/or any other info you want about your setup.

Yep. I remember like it was yesterday . He went 9.3 @166 at 30 something PSI. Them domestics guys mouths dropped to the floor . I decided to not run slicks yet and I to would like to know the record for a DSM on a street tire.

I sold my old GSX and the guy took it straight to MIR and went 9.62@144mph on true 18" street tires but don't remember the brand for some reason. The car is almost full weight too weighing 3200 lbs.

9.62@144mph. Is that auto or manual?

[email protected] in my old car back in 2009. 215/45/17 true street tires which were bald and showing the cords. Stock tranny too. I do not have my 10.56 pass on video though but I do have my 10.7 pass on video.

PS: Was running Goodyear Eagle F1 GS D3 tires. Awesome street tires! Excellent grip in the dry and wet.

Diambo, you said stock tranny? No welded diff or anything? What clutch were you using?

EDIT: NVM it says what clutch in your video.

 

[diambo4life]

Yes....completely bone stock tranny including the stock (open) center diff. Was running a 4-puck (unsprung) Clutch Net disc with ACT 2600PP.

[ShizzySupra]

Are you still running the same clutch setup?

 

[diambo4life]

I sold the car in January with that clutch setup in it. I didn't have to worry about breaking the clutch on that car with that setup....quite remarkable for how cheap the setup was. Very reliable and took drag racing abuse like a champ.
