Outstanding !!!

What power do you think you have ?

Could an E30ish tune and higher boost bring more power ?

I'm running full E85 I got tired of missing fuels
The stock turbos are pretty much maxed out right now really need to start saving for upgraded turbos

I had the Gmax all seasons on my SHO. They worked well.

Heard good things about Firestone for the price and Nitto. Nitto being a whole step up from Firestones. Sorta like General to Michelin Pilot Pros.

Hey,  did your gmax as-05's take a long time to warm up in the mornings?  Mine keep thier overnight 'flat spot' for about 20 minutes ..

Once in a while I felt that. Never lasted long. A min or two.

Check Simple Tire all with free shipping vs Walmart online...both competitive prices, Simple tire has been best prices on tires with the free shipping.   Check one size up 255 45 20 usually cheaper

Damn Chris, great achievement!!!  I don't know all the details, but it appears your record was recently broken in Sacramento, CA with a Flex running 12.02.  I think this competition is great (as long as we can keep it friendly) and can only help the platform get aftermarket support.  Hopefully we will see you come back to regain your title!

I run Gmax's on my wife's Taurus.  Yes I notice that too.  They also get loud as hell once half the tread or so is gone and don't quite get the tread life I was hoping out of them.  It's the second set of them I've ran and won't be buying them again.   They're just fine for the first 10,000-15,000 miles. They're cheap for a reason evidently.

Ya, middle of the road price wise I suppose.  I'll spend the extra $20-30 per tire and go with something else next time around.  I love my Indy 500's so I suppose I should give Firestone my money and try a set of their All-Seasons on her car.
