No. I do not have a 4x4. Straight up 2wd which is why Im having issues off the line.

I'm 4x4. My tires spin here and there even when shifting at 180+ km/h!
I just bought some 17 inch Toyo R888's to try out but I have a feeling I should run two drag slicks in the rear. I'm torn.

Do you guys do anything different on the street vs track? For me, what pulls the wheels on the track blows up on the street.

Well of course it would. Street is to unpredictable from surface to surface. Some good and some not so good but cant be compaired to the rubber that is being laid down at the track. I have to play with my traction control and take a little timing out while on the street but leave it alone and turn of T/C while at the track. I also run about 30-35psi in my tires at the track and 65psi or so on the street.

Thanks man.. Its been a very long year getting this project to be streetable as well as reliable. Having to work through wireing issues / grounding issues have thrown a wrench into it all but finally working my way out of that.. Now I am having traction control problems on all motor I need to figure out before I throw a 300 shot of Nos at it.. From a 20 roll its fun to drive but also have resulted in a couple of warnings and a recent ticket.. Looks like its defesive driving for me!

I don't go to the track enough to justify anything.. My truck was built to race on the street.. Do all you can to get your rear percent higher and get your weight transfer. If you don't have a nitrous controller I'd suggest getting one.

i'm working on get the rear % higher...there's just not much to a s10. and I don't have access to a 4 corner scale. thinking i'll just add a rack in the bed to stack some 45lb weights on each side of my 16 gal fuel cell.

Put a manual rack and pinion on that and lose a considerable amount of front weight.. What shocks and springs you have on the front
