Let me hear what times everyone is running on actual street tires. I don't mean drag radials or the FAST cars, but actual tires like Cooper 275/60-15's. I ran an 11.96 a few weeks ago on 275/60 BFG T/A's and want to see what others are doing. My best 60' was 1.82. I know drag radials or slicks are the true ticket, but it's kinda cool to try to coax good ET's on regular old tires. Also less of a chance for me to break something, which the wife harps about all the time. Got to keep her happy!
