My mate has pulled a 12.3 can't remember what mph he got but ran on ****ty Pirelli P6000 225,55,15's with original calais rims I think they were. He reckons it copped a fair amount of wheel spin. And the car is a auto. And I ran a 12.9@107mph on 225,60,15 Kelly Charger tyres on Interceptor rims that I just put on to burn out, very ****ty tyre at speed the car felt like it was wandering over the track, was a bit scary I must admit. And we both never touched tyre pressues ran street pressures 35psi in all tyres front and rear. But there is for sure bound to be a faster time ran on street tyres, our times are embarassing too many quicker cars these days, mind you have'nt raced for 3 years now.
