I had the revs up to 3000rpm for one of the runs and it still bogged a little. One of my 60' times was 2.016, 2.111 was the third one. The mph was a little down, maybe the less pressures wouldn't allow the car to roll nicely at high speed. I was hoping for a few more runs. I wanted to work on the extra grip thing, the 60' times may have dropped into the 1.9's. It's all encouraging, thanks again for all of your assistance, without it I would definately be going slower.
Craig, a better 60 foot can make your MPH go down, its funny how it works but the main thing is your ET is dropping every time...MPH can show higher from alot of wheel spin..looks like you had little to none with those 60 foot times.....for real street tyres thats a no:1 effort... :
