1.79 60 ft on continentals is dam good. Track must have been super sticky that day. There are only 2 tires you should be looking at, and they are Nitto NT05R or the Mickey Thompson ET S/S for the best traction. You can also use them for the street, but any r comp tire needs to be heated in order to get maximum "hook". If your looking to get the maximum cold traction for the street, I would recommend Michelin PS4S

Note: I currently run R888R's, and from stop light to stop light, they spin. If heated up, they hook. As well they are loud driving around on the street. I'm going to try PS4S next for the street, as they hook good without warning them up, and get another set of rims to run NIttos, or Mickey Thompson for the strip.
