My best was a 1.8 on the Nitto's and all I have as far as aftermarket suspension is Ibach pro springs and MM full lenth sub frames connectors.

Remove your front sway bar (or at least loosen it a bit)

Relocate your battery to the rear, as well as a tubular K member to save weight in the front.

Softer rear springs (drag springs)

Adjust the driveshaft -> diff angle on the UCA (Assuming they're adjustable) to be straight as possible...

Traction and a little practice... hehe

It all depends on the rest of the setup. There are drag radial cars pulling 1.3 short times with the right setup. With that said, a 1.9 60' is pretty good for a street tire. With a stock type suspension and just a set of control arms I would guesstimate you could maybe knock a couple tenths off of that, so 3-4 tenths on the big end.

I find that with DR's you are a the mercy of track prep. If the track is well prepped with VHT you should be able to pull some 1.70's. If it is not prepped, you are not likely to see any improvements. Try racing with the cars with slicks (pro bracket). Let them lay down some rubber for you.
