how much would my 2.84 60ft kill me {fucking flatspot}

That's a woeful 60ft time. I thought I was going pretty bad with a 2.7, but 2.84 is truly bad!

On street tyres you should be aiming for a low 2 second 60ft, you might even creep into the 1.9's if you're good. Something must be wrong - either you have major traction issues or your launch technique sucks. Probably both! Smile

Anyway remember if you can knock half a second off your 60ft time (which is more than doable) you'll be looking at a 13 second pass, or pretty close to it.
