Wow, NySpeed is growing up… 2nd rational thread involving a call out and grown up responses from everyone. :tup:
Wouldn’t mind a fun run with the vette
Ordering tires from discouttiredirect either tonight or tomorrow . Should have them by this time next week. Where are you thinking?
What are you pushing 38stang?
What are you putting down 38stang
About 470 wheel on motor
I would like to see these runs
What kind of torque did the vette make?
what tires did u get? Those MT radials are what u want to race w. heat them up good and hold on. Expect to pedal 1st but 2nd should bite and pull hard.
I haven’t ordered them yet, but i was thinking the Nitto 555R’s again for the rears, and whatever the deal is on the fronts.
That or the nt01s I think they are. I would go with a stickier tire. If this is a summer daily will see rain. I would stay away from the Mickey Thompsons
Let me
Know when ugly get the new meats on, we will make this happen
I’m getting goose bumps
Yeah Cougarspeed recommended the NT-01’s, but he said the 555R’s have better tread life. Last year I put over 7k miles on my last vette, so if I drive the same amount this summer I would want the tread life. Ill price out the NT-01s and see how they look.
My favtit books.
I have about 3500 miles on my M/T Radials and they are shot. The 555r’s aren’t that bad, I cut a 1.5 60’ on them, and ran 10.30’s on the 17" 555’s
LOL I still have mine (books)
My 555r’s have about 10,000 miles on them and are still going, but I will be getting new ones before the end of the summer. I can dead hook 2nd in them after a quick spin.
Just ordered, should be here friday or monday.
Nitto NT 555R Drag Radial: 335/30DR-18’s in the rear
Nitto NT 555 Extreme Performance 275/40ZR-17’s in the front
Thanks to Rugsr for hooking me up with his “tire guy” at discounttiredirect.com which saved me an additional $40.

The vette came in at 414.5 torque.
Your welcome V.
Maybe now with the new shoes you wont spin on the highway and will be able to keep up with me
I want a piece of this vette when I come back to buffalo at the end of may. I’ll have a few more tricks up my sleeve by then hopefully.
What kind of car do you have Jimshorts?
