Go big or go home. When I go I am going for my PB or nothing haha. I always ran on low fuel, pulled the spare, and last time ran footballs, best mod ever, by far. They were amazing. Traction was unreal.

My PB there is 13.2@108. Missed 3rd gear and took 1 section to get into 3rd haha. Still have the log to prove it. Thought sure I had 12s after that then the clutch kept slipping.

Yeah I jacked up the rear at the track and put them in flat and pumped them up. Get junior leathers. Are you lowered? I have stock suspension, dunno how it works on lowered coils. They are amazing. I had mine WOT in 1st and it didnt even chirp. 2.1 60' and thats really good for the experience I had at the track. 0-60mph was 5.000 seconds from the log.

They will help your launch and 1-2 shift big time. The weight won't come off the front wheels from the acceleration and from the 1-2 shift.

If you get SC wheels make sure you have a 5 mm spacer ready to clear the brembos.

You'll just have to eventually replace your axles. And yeah, I don't know if I've seen it since you weren't monster truck status in the shop.

And no, Brian has the black Varrstoens, mine were ASA JH8's, 18x7.5.
