Yep, 15" rims still.

The 245/50/15 tires and the intercooler is about the only give away. I don't think my gauges can really be seen from outside. Maybe the exhaust tip on the Greddy SP2....but most likely people just think it is some NA auto with a muffler lol

Highway races must be a ton of fun.

BTW I think you should get tires with a fatter sidewall (if you can). 50 is not a whole lot. I've got 15's too and I know just how hard it is to get good tires for this size, but the fatter the sidewall, the better the traction off the line.

US 41 is a good track and they stay open till 1am which is great for taking your time making changes... talking with out the stress of haveing to get 100runs in in 2hrs before dusk like most tracks.
Anyway... Great accomplishment in all areas.. now go get some slicks and break your tranny

I am heading to Michigan Friday morning and me and Neal plan to run at US 131 in Kalamazoo Friday night. All boosted guys in the region should show up!

Something like "I knew my 3.5 set up would never hold a candle to a turbo 3.0"

I could make it from Pittsburgh in less than 7. 80 is faster than the turnpike.

The season isn't over. 111, with a 1.75-1.80 60' for example, would shave over a second off his times.

We may find out this weekend. I might be able to get a few runs in with the Mickey Thompson ET streets that Neal posted pics of. And if my new Greddy profec type-S boost controller gets here in time I will be running a couple more lbs of boost.

It's not very hard if you have a good clutch. I think on my worse day with the slicks the best 60' was 1.82, with a bad knock sensor and a headwind.

While I think you can certainly get a 1.7 60', I don't think it's going to happen on ET Streets. They just aren't as good as the real thing. But hey, sure beats Street tires, you will probably only need a high 1.9/low 2.0 to get 12s.
