I don't race magazines. I race cars. Quit being silly. You said "YOU" cut 1.5 seconds off "YOUR" time. Not someone else's magazine time! I don't base how fast my car is on what Motor Trend says. I base it on what my time slip says. 3-4 10ths are about as good as it gets for an improvement in sixty foot times with just drag radials on a street car. That does not translate to 1.5 second worth of ET. A guy that's getting 11.1s on drag radials is getting 11.7s on street tires! Just say you practiced and got better at driving the car. The tires didn't cut 1.5 seconds off your ET all by themselves. Using your own words. Any Badly driven car (GT500) will instantly go from a 12.5 to an 11.0 with a simple change to sticky tires???
