First track day is next saturday Feb 25th at edgewater, what kind of testing do you all want to see?

I'm thinking, stock tires (a waste of time i know) :lol:

Set of DR's on 16's

2.8, 2.7, 2.6, and maybe a 2.5 :guns: :lol:

Any other ideas / predictions???

Hoosier QTP's 26x9x16, BadA$$ DR's, a little soft to drive on the street but great for the track ;)

Malibu 16" rims have the 5x110

Those are to hard for a lightweight FWD car. I've tried them. Being FWD and light requires a VERY soft compound for traction. ;)

Are you gonna run with the stock motor and trans mounts Rob ? I refuse to take mine to the track without both again , fighting wheelhop just made it not fun in the FWD Cobalt . It was much harder to control at the strip IMO on a sticky starting line than on the street . I think a stickier tire would have just wacked it out more.

Hope to see some good #'s outa that thing :twothumbs

btw - Would love to see the QTP used , awesome tire indeed :guns:
