What kind of 60' times are you guys getting with your setup? Which Mickey thompsons you using?

With that size, 1.4's on a decent track. 1.3's if you really push it since you have the Z06 rear end.

Your auto vs his manual is an apples to oranges comparison. But I agree, they are good for those 60fts.

A lot will be seat time and the clutch used at the OP's power level.

Nice number... they are obviously working.

Could you do me a favor and measure the height of the tire from the ground to the top with them on the car ? I have been trying to get this height for a while now.
