    Fasted run of the day. Was also my first pass ever down a drag strip. Car definitely has a 14 in it, traction was a problem and so were poor launches. Does a mean single pegger though !

    Hayden has much more excited news to share.

    205/50 drag radials are to small for even a standard ratio vr6

    Also vr6's are such a awesome car

    Awesome!
    When you say the 205/50 are too small you mean in regards to contact patch or diameter for speed?

    Just not enough grip overall. Given our tires were about 8 years old that could have played a part. You could definitely go down in diameter on the stock vr diff ratio, i was at 6000ish in 3rd through the finish at 150.

    I just baked them. Couldn't get traction regardless of burnout or launch.
