I hope the TN tC vs. TRD SC tC was a wet run, those times were terrible. Im sure it was though.

Yeah, just about all the vids posted thus far, have been wet runs.
I'm kinda surprised the slicks made a whole second diff compared to the 19's; last car I drove that had these types of times ( v8 Pinto 2+ decades ago ) ran 12.10's on street rubber, but only dipped another 2-4 tenths on slicks.
Guess i'm wondering if the 19's in general "slow" down a car that much?
If that's the case, sure doesn't make it seem the 19's make much sense for a street car except for looks ( just thinking out-loud on what we want to put on the wife's TC here ).
All I know is running low 12's in a rear drive rod can be fun; it's gotta be a handful in a front driver....
nice vids by the way...

Pick up the latest Sport Compact Car. It talks about the whole larger diameter wheel mathematics and it pertaining to performance.

No problem.
As for the compliation video, I've been casing out music tracks that I want to add. I've been really tired from running all over the place, so, I will work on putting it together this week.
