Now that I have them. What psi should I run them at the track? The max psi says 40 on the tires. Maybe 20psi?

might have to play with the pressure a bit. I would go the first time on the high side and then take alittle out and see if it helps. Just remember unless you have a compresser in your car it's easier to take pressure out then add it.

They usually have air at the track so it's not that bad. I would say if your going to drive them there. But 30-35psi in them and lower it down to about 20-22psi when you get there. Its more of a trial and error thing.

When are we going to Atco again?
I wouldn't mind seeing you run Jon's STi, but he is a girl and won't run it. :mrgreen:

I'll definetly set up a date so everyone can go, have a meet or something. I would love to see some of tristate tuners cars run.

While where there we can probably recruit some people for the forum. :thumbup:

You need MT slicks to run a mid 13?

I MUST break you.

^No dumba$$.. I already run mid 13's without radials. I'm just trying to lower my 60'.

And they are not slicks. They are drag radials. There is a difference

Get your head out of your A$$..

This post is just as useful as your last post. Do you have anything useful to say??

No need to blow a head gasket. It was a legitimate question. I'm sure others were wondering the same thing but didn't want to ask for fear of an angry response. Good luck in your quest for 13.4s.

I MUST break you.

My fault.. I took your question as being sarcastic. I'm running the M/T's becasue I have problems launching this car. If I rev to high then I just sit there at the line just spinning. My sixty foots are usually 2.1-2.4's, I'm trying to get them atleat below 2.0.

Hey if I run 13.4 then atleast its an improvement.LoL..
