Just imagine what you'd be pulling if you got those 60ft times down! Get yourself some stickier tires...

Good luck improving your 60 ft. 2.2 is the best your gona be able to pull on street tires, especially w/ 3.73 gears you'll be spinning off the line unless you learn how to launch your car flawlessly.

I pulled a 2.1 60ft. on a set of 245/50/16 Firehawk SZ50ep's, yes there street tires but they come w/ AA tracton and are 200 each.

I beg to differ. I was pulling 2.0-2.1's with my 84 with 3.73's, a 5-speed, and a ZZ3...on street tires. Just have to get used to the car and launching it. Thats half the fun though.
