I have not tried no lift shift with my current set up, even lifting and shifting I can NOT apply WOT in 2nd gear, it is a slow lay on the throttle to 70 MPH. I currently have 3/4 down in the back with springs, 275mm PS4s.

Once again on my setup, the throttle has to be feathered to 70 MPH, so IMO any torque above that is not usable.

The OP is on a M6 and "reasonable tires".

I would absolutely love to see a street tire, regular open road run from a PD guy and an A8 applying WOT upto 70 MPH, the OP said 60 MPH. Look I'm sure it is doable, because clearly the whipple owner in the thread below is on conti contacts and he has an M6!!!! I'm still confused on how it is done. I have maybe 1000 blast thru the first three gears looking for the optimal launch, on the 3rd set of tires... soon 4th set. My GTech is getting old and and the new one with GPS is on my Santa list. So long story short, there is at least one M6 that is able to hook plain street tires to the ground. Dunno... I'm sure the track prep is helpful but even there.

Read Fauxm's Big Red build he is still about the same speed / time with 17" drag radials over stock ZL1 tires. I admit I'm a little confused. I will have to make a tire decision before next summer, looking at least to 19" with 205s made RE71R which I have always liked.

I tend to use NLS on rolls. 3rd gear and up. No issues with good tires there.

Im sure if I tried NLS in 1st or 2nd I'd find myself suddenly heading the wrong direction.
