15-11-09, 20:54 GMT+10#22 Ollie hooks up 450rwhp on 235 radials, and now 255 radials and run 1.42 60ft's and mid 10's. Andy hooks up over 500rwhp and same 60ft for a 9.9 on 26x8.5's.
If you have a manual, that makes gearing even worse, as you don't have converter slip. With a 28" tall tire you could use 4.11's and still be crossing the line under 6200rpm, 3.45's has you back in the early 5000rpm range.
Anyway, my last post, I'm sick of arguing the point, you obviously have some fascination with thinking you need a huge tire for some reason. Big tires are great, just be prepared to set the car up to use it, don't expect to chuck anything on the car and go racing with the best efficiency possible.
