Default Best 60' for 5AT???

What is the best 60' anyone has made with the automatic transmission? (FI or NA) I am supercharged and can't seem to do better than 1.94 with 255/50/16 ET Street Radials. Its kind of frustrating when I can pull 1.97 with 285/35/19 street tires.

without a high stall you will be hard pressed to cut better than a high 1.8 IMO

I was thinking that too, but I already get wheel hop sometimes. Wouldn't that make it worse? Anyone with the higher stall want to chime in?

sorry i cant really comment on that, but from what i have READ(dont know for sure with 1st hand knowledge) if you run a softer sidewall tire, you should reduce that wheel hop a bit.

Its all about the tire. My stock bridgestones hopped like CRAZY, but the kuhmos I have now don't bounce at all, but rather peel out. It has to do w/ the material the sidewall is made of, and the PSI ur running in the tires, as well as suspension setup

i only pulled a 1.94 on half throttle in 1 gear cause i cant push it harder because it wont shift 1-2. This was with a little burnout on 19/35/275
