yeah the 255 50 16 BFG drag radials are going to be the biggest help. definitely would see the low 1.6s at least i would think.
the biggest problem is 60 foot me also, i still spin now with all my suspension mods, i need some real drag tires this time. at least i dont wheel hop or flex anymore.

ill probably do a few runs where i drop it at like 3500 or somethin and see how it reacts. not to pat myself on the back but i think im a pretty good driver so if the car is capable of a 1.6 or even a 1.5 i should be able to get it there. as for shifting i dont power shift, i do the normal routin let of the gs push in the clutch, shift the gear nail it, but as fast as i can, ive made abou 100 runs in this car and it hasnt broken the tranny so i guess my shifting is acceptable for a t5. i reallly rip on the shifter tho, if i do a burnout on the stret there is about a foot to a foot and a half space between the marks.
i guess im just lookin for what the car should be capable of doin with those suspension mods, lol with an extremely good driver behind the wheel.

with drag radials u should be able to do 1.8 even on teh stock parts. run 18-20 psi of presure in them and slip the clutch as hard as u can at 3500 when launching this should work better for u.
