Default Dragstrip - 3rd visit - cracked into the 10s
Mods listed in second pic. The drag radials were all it took to finally get me a 10.93 @ 123. I got them used from snowblind 2.0, they include skinnies up front and are 55lbs lighter than my forged wheels.

This week at Milan was 900-1000
I tried the street tires again before I left and it cooled down but humidity was coming up

You going to try cat deletes or high flow cats ? A little more power, less weight and better DA and you are headed to 10.7 😎
