Those e/t streets usually like 14-15psi from what I've seen. Either way around 17 is too much IMO. I run my Hoosiers at 12-13psi... At 12 they spin on the rim pretty bad. Haven't anything of mine down the track in a little while though been playing with everyone else's truck too much

Thanks everyone. I have the et streets and the last run was around 15psi and I did a big burnout, and that got me the 1.79. I'm going to mark the tire next time to see if it's spinning. These don't hook as good as hoosier full slicks i've used before.

Checking my slips shows exactly 1 tenth off my 60' dropped over 2 tenths in the 1/4... So a 1.6 60' and I should have 11's...

yeah track prep sucked big time. great times thou david! maybe a full slick is what you need. I am pricing some 28/10/16's from alex monday. you want me to text you a price?your setup has the most potential out of all of us, 109mph is smokin n/a!

honestly your squat looks too soft, just my opinion, yeah its possible, even though your sig looks like a hard launch its really soft compared to the 60 ft time, i would think about tightening it up some, maybe some good adjustable shocks?, did you remove the overload spring? looks like you may need to start looking into some suspension mods, i would clamp the springs in the back part of the rear, are you running cal tracs? the power seems like its there, just need to figure out whats gonna get it in the 11's which shouldnt take much !!!

on yeah get some lighter rims up front dunno what those weigh or what size they are but they look heavy

how high do you stall? I can't come off idle in mine, cause the dbw has a .5 sec delay. I get better 60fts with a higher preload stall than a flash.

Skeet, davids rims are Centerlines, so they're really light (or at least should be).
