Peter Dodge used them on his B/S Camaro worked just fine. He used an 8 or 9 inch rim. TOYO told me they didn't work with 10's. I tried them all except TOYOs. The Hoosiers were the second quickest with my old sets of Firestones the best, but the Hoosiers really last. But that was just on my car your car/setup might like something different.

1320 MPH should be 10.00 ET. Either your slicks, clutch, or both need further evaluation. One assumption I am making is that track prep is up to par over in Europe compared to here in the USA. If not, then that creats another issue which you may not be able to resolve.

John, you can use my flyer, but I doubt you need it. Just call Oregon City Les Schwab, I think it was danny. I think all the Schwabs know about the deal. I'm just planning on getting a new set of Hoosier Radials. They aint cheap, but I love em. Pm me if you want the flyer. Tim

when i did that time i have only race that car 5 runs i did a bad shift from 3 to 4 gear i (short shift ) and was all over the track.the clutch didnt slip i read the computer it is the first time i race a stick shift car in stock so i need more runs to go faster.mabe i change slicks and try some anhter than the toyo.
