I need a tire that is super sticky for these crappy roads here in San Antonio. I have Nitto drag radials and they're not sticky enough, plus the sidewall is weak. I need a sticky tire with a normal sidewalll for daily driving that will make the rear end stick on these old worn out slick...

She sure did. I'm completely stock suspension (set on S) and 3.31 gears. She wiggled on that very old pavement yesterday at 60 when I nailed the throttle. Believe me it has me dumbfounded to say the least. One thing you can see on the streets here are two grooves in the pavement. They are...

No. I avoid social media.

ROFLMFAO. We came, we saw, we kicked his ass!

NT05Rs. 315/35R20, mounted on my original SVT rims.

Well goody for you; believe what your want because I really don't give a flying **** at a rolling doughnut what you believe or think. Thanks for calling me a liar. I was doing more like 60 @ 2250 rpm and I didn't "roll into the throttle," I stomped it through the goddamn floor board and glued...

Stock is a relative term. If someone looked at mine, unless they have a good eye, they'd assume it was stock. All of these cars come from the factory tuned for the salad oil 91 (R+M)/2 fuel sold in places like California. However in the South we have 93 and just tuning for that is good for...

I just did a little test. For those in San Antonio, I was on 1604 in the Alamo Ranch area. Old pavement; blacktop, so old it is nearly the color of concrete. Temperature here 95-97. Was in 4th, doing 60--2250ish rpm. Nailed the gas, and the ass end wiggled with those 315 NT05's on it! Yes...

That is not surprising. The automatic transmission gives the HC the advantage in the 1/4. You simply can't outshift the computer. ALL serious drag racers use automatic transmissions. Usually 2 speed Powerglides with transbrakes. I have a 2006 GT with a Level 10 RR55S automatic and precision...

And GT500 hit 202mph in testing last time I checked. Ours were made for high speed too. WTF is this board, an SVT board or a Mopar board?????

600 pounds is a disadvantage regardless of starting from a dig or rolling. Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass; less mass, more acceleration, regardless of speed. Physics 101. A = F/m Moral of the story, he couldn't pass me because we were pretty much equal, in fact, I probably...

I was doing 55-60. You do know these cars will do 0-150 in 15 seconds, don't you? Believe what you want. Thanks for all the feedback.

LMFAO. I turned left into my subdivision at the light. I was going home.

YWell I can't say that he was racing me, but he was in my lane and came up on me like a bat out of hell(cat?). I was doing 150 when I let off. He was going a helluva lot faster than I was when I saw him in the rear view mirror. I was around 55 or 60. I floored it and held it down. He never...

Damn, damn, damn! I guess that will keep me on my toes when driving! I guess I can put her back to strictly stock.

I can romp it in 4th doing 40-50, and feel the ass end wiggling! I have to ease into the gas, especially in curves! I think they are putting some sort of sealer on the pavement that is causing this.

I dropped Allstate decades ago. Same kind of Mickey Mouse BS. They sux big greasy grimy dirty donkey dix, IMHO.

I been so busy with moving and my new job, that I ain't had time to go to the track!

And when it's wet it's slicker than owl sheyet on a hot greasy griddle!! Thanks. I was thinking my tires had gone sour on me. Now you confirm what I was suspecting--the roads sux.

Yessir, and them with 26 psi air in them. The roads are glass, and there's this fine white powder from construction everywhere. Hell, I even ordered some pimp juice and doctored them a couple of weeks ago and I still can't get decent traction! Up in Dallas I had no problems hooking with those...

Thank you; I agree. Since moving to San Antonio, I have a helluva time getting traction with those 315s Nitto drag radials on the back. Roads are slick as sheyet here. I can easily get her loose in 4th gear just punching it. Fortunately I was doing about 55 yesterday when I hit it.

We had to both stop for a traffic light. I saw the hellcat emblem on the side. He gave me a long look too. I just did a boy scout salute and went on my way.

Last night I was driving home and one of these came up behind me rapidly, so I laid into it to see what would happen. I was in 4th gear at the time. This was a Charger (4 door), not a Challenger Hell Cat. New one because it has the LED daytime running lights. What happened? Nothing. He...

If you can't buy the real thing, then don't badge up a 5.0 or V6 and act like it is a Shelby GT500. Copy cat poser is all you are. Just saw what appears to be a 5.0 "converted" to a Shelby in Garland, TX. Gray with black stripes. Had my Lincoln with me otherwise, I would have shown him what...

Love the new TB. Running it with a 93 octane Brenspeed tune. Absolutely zero problems with it. OMG was it fun driving to and from San Antonio from Dallas a week ago. State Hwy 130, the tollroad bypass around Austin, down to I-10 is wonderful. Minimum posted speed 80 with some places 85. I...
