Wait a minute. This is a manual base GT? I don't care if it is 100% untouched with stock wheels/tires and all, that car doesn't even weigh 3600 without driver. Get a new scale.

Why are you running a radial tire, any radial tire, on a stick car, then complaining it won't hook? You put the wrong tire on!

Here's the splits needed to go 10.80s from a 1.55 60':

60-330 2.9409
60-660 5.4026
60-1000 7.5251
60-1320 9.319
330-660 2.4617
330-1000 4.5842
330-1320 6.3781
660-1000 2.1225
660-1320 3.9164
1000-1320 1.7939


Splits for sticks are quicker than that down low, automatics get to take advantage of a radial tire and are quicker downtrack. You've got at least 75 more RWHP according to you, so you should absolutely slaughter every single one of those numbers. So let's see em.
