The Cats have to have good tires to do anything at the strip. As you can see they are heavy cars, couple that with crap tires and it's a losing battle. Now you see why I won't even fool with the stock tires, kinda pointless.
My goal for mine is to beat 10.850. That was my PB in my old car the HC replaced. Anything past that for me is gravy.

Power to weight is definitely a big deal. That's why it takes a heck of car to run with a 200 hp bike.
Are you trying to beat your PB with a tire only or whatever it takes? A tire only may make for a fun little challenge. Or you may just go out there and beat it on your first pass.
