Need advice for drag race?

hello guys
I've a Porsche 911 turbo 2007 year made with Techart tuning package with about 650HP modifyed.
now my car run at the drag strip 11.06 sec at the dust tarmac,on the stock tires.
month ago I bought the Toyo R888 for my porsche in these sizes
front -235-35r19 rear-305-30r19.
And now I asking you about some recommendations for me.I need may be semi sliks for my car or something like that but for the street car.
who installed these TOYO or the other tires?what your opinion?
i need the very soft tires.
i know that our colleague on the drag strip from TTR moscow on the porsche made from SWITZER run 10.3-10.2 sec on Michelin pilot sport cup.
how about the hoosier?
ok it's enought.i am waiting for your recommendations.thanks

what was your trap speed on that 11.06 pass?

et(your quarter mile time) is what you are after, but trap speeds tell you what kind of et you are capable of running.

Driver mistakes have a lot to do with et, but trap is usually around the same(bar you aren't just a horrible driver and shift like literally my grandma)

this is what I recommend to people with not much/any experience

make sure your tire pressure's are right...first off...anyway back to action


Don't launch your car, do a hard acceleration as you would do from a traffic light, shift fast but not nearly fast enough to miss a gear(shift smooth is what i'm trying to say and be accurate with how the car feels) Do this at least 3 times and see what's your highest trap.


~125mph, if you are a great driver you MIGHT have a ten second pass

~130mph, you have a ten second car

~135-140 you are on the doorstep of nines if you are a great driver

(again there are ahole's that will be like I ran this but I ran that...well these are facts and governed by physics)


becareful out there mate, make sure you have fire suppressant's and proper safety gear, all these times are more than fast enough to kill ya!

Keep your wheel DEAD STRAIGHT, you have awd you have no excuses!

cheers

my speed at the Finish 215-220 km\h always/sometimes it becomes less than 215km\h.
start boost was 0,3bar
the pressure in the tirers was 1.5bar
may be i'm your grandma??
the question is not in the start or the pressure in the tires.
i asked about the different tires
for example i have the EVO 9 it runs 9.28i know how to start right.
the other question is -the most of tracks in the USA covered with some glue or something else.thats why your times better then mine.

Take a look at either the Nitto NT05 or NT555R drag radials.

The 555R has a bit more tread pattern so you could (carefully) drive it on the street in moist conditions.

A lot of members here (including me) do 1/4mile in 10,5sec or less on streets with PS2 and normal tyre pressure. So i don't think its the tires.
Toyos should work great on dry road but they need to be warmed first.
Is your car a tip or manual?

tiptron.
and how do you launch your cars in the start?may be something wrong with the ECU?because the man who flashed the ECU said that it might be starts on the at least 1-1.2bar.but I saw just 0.3

what is your 0-100km/h time?
this is one of the most important thing.
try to release your foot off the brake when 0.6bar boost.

on r888 you will have more grip, but I believe traction wasn't issue as you start with 0,3 bar boost.

I took my car to the track tonight and did consistent 11.33's at 121, with 1.6's 60 ft. It was around 68 to70 degree's, hope to go back when it is colder. Have not drag raced since 2000, may have to start going again!
