I have very little left on the Goodyears and this is why I used them that night. Want to order a set of Pilot Cups for the rear and PS2's for the front.

God I wish I won the chick in the Lambo.....very pretty.

I was VERY suprised that they hooked up pretty well but I DID heat them up a BUNCH. A couple of the runs I did not heat them up good enough and they spun pretty good. After the runs where I heated them up real well they were very sticky afterwards until they cooled down and became very slick and hard until the next burnout.

the girl in the lambo looks familiar, do I know her?

I only did one run with them and ran a 11.2 with some wheelspin. I guess i did not warm them up enough. I would guess they can take off .2 to .4 at the power level I have. I'm thinking I could have cracked a 10.8 or 10.9 with them.

Next time out I will use them quite a bit more.

Strong work. Those are some great numbers, especially on the Goodyears with just pulley, tune, and exhaust. Sounds like somebody knows how to launch and when to shift. Good on ya!
