Just picked me up some junkyard tires yesterday, because the kumhos were showing belts. They are going to get me by until I get some good tires on there. Well I decided to break them in at the 1/8th mile in lakeland today. Those things have to be the shittiest traction tires evar! They are H rated traction A temp A with a 320 treadwear. I thought hey, not bad actualyl supposedly softer than the kumho's I have on. To my demis they weren't even close
I was running about a second slower than I normally do. Good RT's in the 500 -600 range mostly had one bad one at .837 but overallt RT's were good. Speed was about right at 66-70mph. You could really tell in the 2.5-2.7 60 ft's which are normally 2.3 or less. I NEVER spun in second or thrid on the kumho's they just hooked and went. These new ones are spin spin spin launch spin spin spin second spin third then the end of the 1/8th about a second after i shift to 3rd. Bleh, won't be going to the track for a while until I get my new tires
Oh yeah I normally run about a 10.2-10.5 I was running a 10.89 to 11.3's tonight *Sighs*
Just had to vent heheh most annoying. Still was fun though alot of quick cars and cool people as usual. Even saw MR2GRL from this site there with her BF raced her twice I lost twice bleh
