    Dear Ernie

    I am new to drag racing but loved it.

    I did my first event with a 450bhp engine Fd and did a 12.5 with 120mph and 62ft @ 2.33

    My setup was not for the strip as it was my first run. I had D2 coilovers set to soft and track day tyres Toyo R888

    Regarding tyres I was thinking either MT ET STREET 26/10.5/16 or ET STREET radials 275/40/17

    MY tranny is box standard with only a HKS twin plate

    Please give some advice also regarding suspension because I think the D2 was TOO hard even at the soft setting. Can I use OEM dumpers and springs.

    Nothing too expensive...Its only a hobby but I might as well do it right. What about some aftermarket dumper eith eibach springs

    Please help....
