What I want to know is how much did you guys gain from going to 18" from 20" DR's when drag racing?
Drag Radials should be better than my F1 Supercars on the track.
2010SSRSM6 says about the same. Beautiful looking red car by the way.

She's IOM, but thanks! lol

Your biggest obstacle getting a good 60' with the M6 is going to be riding the clutch out just right. Factory clutch is ok at best, ACT is garbage, I'll be trying the RXT out next trip to the track.

It is hard to get consistent times without seat time. You can have the best tires made and still screw up a launch of your left foot isn't working with the right one correctly.

Auto guys have an easier time with consistency and run better times overall, so they'll able to get more out of their tires until you figure the consistency thing out.

I've got 70+ passes between stock and 20" NTO5R's (didn't have a line lock to properly heat them) and cut very similar times. My line lock is going on now so I'll be able to get good heat into the tires and have a much more realistic run on them.

If you haven't done it yet get a line lock.
