Yeah, I understand that 2.3s are decent for the CSVT. You guys could easily get quicker 60', but your stock differentials don't agree.

A 2.3 60' like what I got on my 14.4, is pretty sad by Maxima standards. A good Maxima 60' on street tires is 2.20 and a great one is 2.10. The lowest I've ever gotten is a 2.21 60' on a 14.451@97mph in 85 degree weather. It's kind of funny because my best is a 14.451@99mph with the 2.31 60' in 50 degree weather Now if I could have just pulled a 2.20 in 50-degree weather I'd have at least a 14.30.
