There are alot of drivers with many different cars who chose to punch it off the line or whereever they go just because they can, and so I dont find ripping it that hard and creating that wheel spin which potentially damages the motor and chews through rubber that appealing whatsoever. I can drive anywhere and go no higher than 3000rpm between gear changes and not even hear turbo spool up or the bov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway maybe im just jealous.. Grippy tyres factor in you should..Cheers Mike.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of the guys I speak to at tyre places have the opinion that tyres in excess of $400 each are beneficial for high speed driving whether it be track days or drag as they hold their shape and do not flex as much. At the moment im using michellin which set me back about $260 each, they've been one of the best tyres ive had but put the foot down and I still get w/s in 2nd. Anyway thanks again for the comments guys I'll start a new thread and post pics results dyno blah as they occur.CheersBrad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
