Hi guys, long time no post for me. Reason is my 2012 gtr has been sitting in the garage for a few years. She is what some of you call a "garage queen". Anyways some friends have been pushing me to race her now. All I have on her are AMS downpipes, hks mid pipe and legamax exhausts, and a mild ams tune via a cobb access port. I have had this car brand new and she has just 2k miles on her. I have never launched her ever.
I need your advice on how to launch her properly because i am terrified of the tranny horror stories I have read here in the past. I live in the the central Philippine Island of ******. We have a very old airport for a drag strip. The asphalt is very loose that it resembles dirt covered concrete. I have read here that some members had done well with drag radials as compared to the stock run flats. I have spare rims, enkei gtc01's . Will they do for a start? Which tires should I buy for them? I am getting confused because i get a lot of suggestions. Most suggest Mickey Thompsons, and there are a lot of different models of MT tires out there.
I am asking your help so that i do not get embarassed by the evo's and sti's over here. Thanks in advance guys. Looking forward to your replies. Thanks.
