All this talk about warming up street tires?!??!?!
C'mon guys... You all SHOULD know better than that....... You dont do big smoke shows with street tires! It doesnt help AT ALL!
He did the right thing he chirped the tires twice to scuff of the rubber and clean the contact patches. Thats all a street tire needs.
Dont mess wit my sig Line tune!

If the engine is front mounted and transverse then its most likely going to be a front split system by default, it can be biased to the rear but most of the time they are biased to the front.
Lamborghini and Porsche use a rear biased system that only engages the fronts when the rear begins to slip. The Nissan Skyline system is like this too, as well as some Audi's.

Rocco is right (did I just say that? lol)
If you heat a street tire, it'll make your traction worse! They are not meant to run hot. I quick spin, enough to clean off rocks and dirt, is all that's needed.

I don't think it's awd Im pretty sure its rear drive, rear engine. which would explain the good hookup. It just didnt occur to me in an earlir post that porsche doesnt really make an AWD car
You're kinda making sound like he was racing a 4 cylinder minitruck instead of a Lightening there mash: Wasn't there a Toyo Tires sponsored 911 (I think it was a 993 which should have been the last of the original 911 platform IIRC) that not only ran those kind of times and speeds in the quarter but would also carry the front tires for most if not all of the first 60' on Toyo road race tires.

Unless they're Wrangler RT/S tires, I hear that's the only way to get any traction from those:eek:

Marko's was street legal, driveable, and would run low 9's I believe and he may have cracked 8's. This one has a turbo too big to be usefull for anything but the track but its damn cool....

Hahahahah...... wow. Think first and THEN type. First off, you would have to be missing a good portion of your brain to ever consider putting $100k into a Grand Am. Second off.... $100k wouldn't get you half as far as some of the other members on here. You would have to pay everyone for labor where others wouldn't. But I guess it doesn't matter since someone will just give it to you. You remind me of my buddy. Racin around in a contour. Gets a Lancer Evo and crashes it less than a week later.
