the eagle f1 d3s is one of the best street tires money can buy. sloppy suspension doesnt help much with traction, i know youve got lca and torque arm, but springs and shocks can do a lot. ---

I ran it 2 weeks after I got it, and 2 weeks into driving standard ever…it was my first time ever launching a standard car in my life and the car didnt have the torque arm at the time, or headers and Y pipe…went 13.6 @ 106 with a 2.4 60’ spinning the tires off in all of 1st gear and half of 2nd… will be back to the track soon…now that im more experienced. where did you see it? lake george last night?
