I run the 11 second. Hemi Shootout is 3 runs and you average the runs to the closest second 10,11,12,13,14,15 class

I don't remember those classes. I'm shooting for the 10.50 index class.

I tried the 555R when I was bone stock and they didn't work very well for me. Same Hemi Shoot Out event. I won event runner up to a Demon but coulda dine better on the ET R.

ET Street R on a 17x10. Work awesome.
I have a pair of 315/50-17 MT Street R’s on 10” wide Race Star Recluse rims. Paired them against brand new Nitto’s both the NT05R and the 555R2 and with no burn out on the street same day same location the Street R’s did no better for me. I’m contemplating a pair of 315 MT Street SS ET in a 315 this time. Looking over historical data the 275’s I tried once 2 years back gave some good times on the street until I cooked them, maybe the 315’s will hook enough to where that won’t happen again?? But I’m making way more power now. Decisions decisions decisions 🤔

Are your recluses 10 or 10.5? Mine are 10.5. I have worried about the 315 not fighting with the wider wheel but if it works for you good to know I can probably make it work.

Could be 10.5, I’d have to look at the paperwork to be sure.

Would you consider some Hoosier A7 or R7 slicks, great roadcourse tire.
