I'm using Nitto drag radials on my '17 V6 - I already had them. I don't do high RPM clutch drops at the track and the car seems to like slipping it just a bit off the line. I just don't have enough passes with this car (going Saturday after changing to 3.55 gears and getting a tune) to have figured out how it "wants" to be launched yet. The quickest 60ft times I've ever recorded with street cars (actual street cars LOL) and a manual, always involved getting off the line with a balance of smooth vs. quick - the goal of course being able to get into WOT without traction loss as quickly as possible.Agreed. Driver mod and just generally knowing what you are doing are key ingredients to keeping anything alive in a car. Also component selection plays a role. I wouldn't dare try to beat on a stick car with a hard biting clutch and a drag radial from a dig. That's just asking for problems. They make bias ply tires for a reason..
