Street Tires
I spun all 1st gear and most of second with an A4... I tried lots of techniques that day and got this best time stalling the car just a bit before launching... the problem I noticed that affected me the most was that because of the spinning, the A4 would shift into second before time and would bog me down...

The track wasn't helping either, lots of dust that day, most cars were getting ****ty times but I'm dying here...

Race on pavement next time and pass on the ice tracks...lol
Seriously if youre 60 is that bad, you have quite a bit of E.T. to pick up there by just hitting a 1.90 60 foot.

Put it this way I went 13.2 at 101.3mph on stickies with just a 1.8 60ft. same night with another 100lbs in the car on street tires I went 13.6 at 101.
You get it to hook and the MPH may come down a little but the ET will come down a lot.
