Are NT05Rs good for sub 1.5 60's? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Like the title states, will the Nt05r hook well enough for 1.5s or quicker on a big stall auto car?

I will be running a 4000 converter with 3.70s. I may just spring for some slicks to be sure. I think a 1.55 could get me where I need to be though.

Im really looking at a wheel tire setup I could dd and track. The M and H drs are looking promising, but on the other hand I know for a fact that a hoosier 28" slick will dead hook it......lol

I'm getting 1.53 60's on Mickey DR's.. I drive mine 180 miles round trip.

I really liked the M&H d/r's.... I have driven to the track on 28" hoosiers as well with no problems so far.

You want to try them...I know someone that has some 305/45 18s on some nurburgrings.

I will say this though...if the NT05r spins after this new converter, I will buy Mickey Thompson. Worked great on my GN.

Rhino79 · 01-13-2013, 02:12 PM

May do that...lol. I am waiting on the converter to arrive. Should be here by the end of the week or early next.

Bring it to the Ville in Feb and you can try my MT's..

Rhino79 · 01-13-2013, 02:39 PM

Can you borrow a set of 17x10 Weld/MT's, that's my top choice.
