I've been hunting as I knew I had to have a comparison somewhere, taken me a while but I found it
Direct comparison plot with pirelli p zero tyres 305/30/19, then r888 295/30/19
just by changing tyres 3.3 seconds out of the 0-130 mph time !
And although it was about 8 years ago I remember it like it was yesterday, I took my dad out in the supra on the pirelli, 4th gear 100 mph nailed it and it spun up straight to the limiter ! Pops was like fuck me that is ridiculous, and he liked fast cars had owned Mustangs, big block Corvettes etc
Anyway we went racing around wiggling it's bum everywhere

lol
I got some r888s on it but he wouldn't get in the car again lol
Dad did film me though doing a 12.1, low mph as I missed 4th gear
And worst start of the day

lol bit better mph though, can't see time but I think it was 12.2 or a 12.3
