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. rocco79 Wrote: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.
Unless they're Wrangler RT/S tires, I hear that's the only way to get any traction from those:eek:
