new times for the TA

I still have not tuned the car. just leand it out a bit. 275/40/17 nittos at 25psi. launching off idle and rolling it out, any thing more than that I just spin. It has a lot more in it with some tuning and tires.

60ft 2.026
1/8 8.398
mph 84.29

Nice times but man if you'd air those nittos down to about 18 psi and do a good burnout you could probably 60' in the 1.6xs. Buddy does it all the time in a 3800 pound car.
Heck with a good 60' you'd be in the 7s.

If you want to hook, it's time for some weight transfer. I'm in the same boat. Time to ditch the pro kit, at least on the front. I'm going to switch to the QA1's on the front with their drag springs. That way at least, I can still keep the lowered look.
