Went to the track today, with my new MT ET Streets . These are the bias ply ones that are 10.5 wide by 26 fitted onto a set of sc rims.

mph - 81.54
1/4 - 13.661
mph - 102.28
I steadly improved as I got more and more used to the slicks and the way the car hooked up, and I'm developing a launching pattern so to speak that seems to work best with the current setup. My trap speed is way down from a best of 105.9mph but thoughts on that is because I'm not getting enough rpm at launch now that I used to get with spinning the street tires at launch.
