Ran my '99 RT/10 at Cordova, IL last night. Last fall I ran at the same track and the best that I could manage was a 12.2. Last night I hit 11.908 @ 118+

My best previous time ever was at Route 66 and ran a 12.02 @ 118+

The 11.9 was my first launch ever on the Toyo's. I had them installed by a friend and he drove the car to the track so I had ZERO experience driving the car with them on. I am very impressed with the traction of the tires. I am confident with more practice I could hit 11.7 with no other mods. It was also my first time driving the car since putting it away for the winter last October.

My worst run of the night (5 runs total hot lapping) was a 12.2 and that was coasting through the finish line at 110 after missing 4th gear.

No question, the Toyos are a performance improvement over the original 1999 Pilots.

Mods are the car are:
B&B headers, high flow cats, cat back
Smooth tubes & K&N filter
B&M shifter
Toyo's
