I have an 06 vette that put down 480/460tq at the end of fall. Went to the track the first time this year and kind disappointed with the times as there was some major traction problems.
Best run in the car was a 11.9 at 121 with a 60 foot time of 2.0.
What is it going to take to get my 60 down to 1.5-1.6? I am currently running Invo 305's on a 19 inch tire. Options?

I think your mph is too low for 480rwhp. When you put drs on, you are going to lose mph. You should be at least 125-127 with that much power. I only put down 400rwhp and I run consistant 120. I have an A6. I also run at Atco and Cecil.

yea you should be trapping around 125-126. DR's will help a ton. Get you some c5 wagon wheels 17/8.5 or c5z fronts 17/9.5 with hoosier 275/40/17 DRs and practice your launch and shifts and you will be surprised how much faster you will run.
