From 2.73's to 3.72's I'd certainly hope to see a better gain than .3 ... I'm going with 15.95 @ 88. |
I'm running friday so what ever I do you should do just a little better So I will give my guess friday night lol:p
we will see what happens when you are 3.73 and a turbo and I have 4.10s and nitrous :D |
thanx yall for the times...i do hope to see 15's whenever i get my timeslip

I just checked the weather and the day that I am going to the track looks like it will be clear (i'm so happy:D) about 3 days ago it was supposed to rain on friday
I'm looking at faily high humidity (67%) and low to mid 60s not sure on the elevation so the air conditions could be better but you go with what you got |
15.90s @ 88-89
Good luck and be safe! |
thanx yall

what psi should i run my street tires? i was thinking maybe 20, how much could i go? (lower that is)
|
I wouldn't mess with tire pressure to much if it's to low it will slow you down at the end and that will be more trouble that the slightly better launch is worth
|
so then live it at 35psi and no burnout....
|
Don't do a big burnout that will just kill your tires let them spin just enough to evaporate the water of the tires as soon as you see any smoke stop. Street tires don't get any real benifit from being hot
and as far as psi goes I wouldn't go below 30 and only drop it to that if you are spinning through most of first (which is unlikely) chirp is no big deal. |
kool thanx
ill probably run it at 35 psi first and if i spin ill drop it down to 30 |
Most street tires are rated at about 32PSI, 35 seems a little too high to me. I'd probably run about 28PSI in the rears on the track, 32 for daily use.
Also, don't go through the water box at all if you can help it. Not only will it hurt your times, but you'll have all of the guys with slicks pissed at you. Just do your best to drive around it. Burnouts on regular radial tires do nothing to help traction, just do a small dry hop to shake the tires. |
At the one by me there is no way to go around it so you have to go through
and I found that the track elevation is 658 feet |
ok thanx for the tip guys...ya both of the tracks i go to, there is no way around it
looks like im gonna have to do a small dry hop |
