My '60' times are (best, 2.11 with 215/70/R/14's-Firestones)., Now run (235/60/R/15's-BFG Radial TA 15's). Niether spun too much at the track due to VHT, lots of rubber at the line etc. '60 times are a little worse with the better tires, while the ET and Mph are some better due to bolt on mods and better tuning. I think spinning a little more helped my '60 times as this acted like a little higher stall getting me in to my "sweet spot" a little sooner. With my now marginally better tires, and a proposed slightly higer stall converter and a shift kit, I'm hoping for a tenth or two. I'm only asking for a "gut" opinion, I know there are no guaratees. Thanks for the responses.
