Thanks for all the replies and information that's what I was looking for
Yes sorry L88 with auto combination

Re: Tire size suggestions and brand
 

Yep, that's the combination I thought you were going to run, the Hoosier package I suggested should be as fast, consistent, and affordable as any.

Re: Tire size suggestions and brand
 

Sounds great, thanks for the info Alan
Regards Rory

I would strongly suggest you run Santhuff shocks on that, as the Corvette is known for violent wheelstands with big powr and good traction, due to the short wheelbase and good engine setback. You need the ultimate in front end control to prevent ugly things from happening. Specifically, you need to not have to "hit" the thing really hard to get it to hook and make the front end work. A lot of shocks have to be hit real hard to work, the Santhuffs do not, they work so smoothly that a 1.3 60' pass feels as soft as a 1.5 60' pass.

Thanks again Alan
I will have a look at that for sure I was leaning towards afco or qa1 I have never used the others before

Re: Tire size suggestions and brand
 

Qa-1 not good enough, not adj enough

The last set of Goodyear radials I took off had 88 runs on them, the secret to long life is a short time in the water. On the Cuda the Goodyears are faster than the CO6 Hoosier. The front tires from Goodyear have very good longevity also.

Support at the track is very good, you can always find help if you need it from Goodyear. I believe Goodyear offers the best value and selection to the racer.

Re: Tire size suggestions and brand
 

I second Larry's assessment of the Goodyear Tires and support

Re: Tire size suggestions and brand
 

I agree, Goodyear support is second to none.
They hook at least as hard as anything I ever owned.
They are, however part of my slow down, or bracket mode. My MTs are about 5lbs each lighter, and .04 average slower in 1/4 mile. I think it is the weight difference, as about .03 of that shows up in 60'. Same lights with both sets, so they are a good thing to switch back & forth for class or heads-ups.
