went to the track last night**PICS**
i went to the track for the first time ever. i've never street raced from a solid stop or a rolling start so i didn't know what the ---- i was doing on my first run. best run, the last run was a 14.75. this is with a boosted 99'si, t3 .60trim at 11psi. dynod' at 246 hp 202 tq.pitiful but high trap speeds. does lower tire pressure make a good difference in street tires? what do you guys recomend for tire pressure?
1st run:
r/t... .775
60'... 3.93
330... 8.343 <---what's 330
1/8... 11.798
MPH... 74.65
1000.. 14.618
1/4... 16.93
MPH... 95.55
2nd run:
r/t... .99
60'... 2.8
330... 6.993
1/8... 10.19
MPH... 80.5
1000.. 12.925
1/4... 15.172
MPH... 103.96
3rd run was only 1/10th a second slower than my fourth which was the best run. 4 runs that day.
4th run:
r/t... .803
60'... 2.709
330... 6.802
1/8... 9.92
MPH... 80.9
1000.. 12.56
1/4... 14.75
MPH... 104.6
this was on street tires, some champiros i got a good deal on they still had 70%thread in the front 50%thread in the back. my last run i put the front tire pressure down to 35psi. max psi on the tire says 44psi. i should've gone 25psi. i stil had fun even though i had some major traction problems. anybody know where i can get drag radials at a good price?

Re:went to the track last night**PICS**
you think i'll run better w/lower tire psi? i got champiros
tires"cheapiros" they're good for street but on the track they sucked. i'll be getting some bfgoodrich drag radials soon. think lower tire pressure will make a difference in the champiros?

shitty tires and lack of race experience i've only raced last night. i'll be going again to the track soon though.
you think i can get low 13s' on these same tires w/lower air pressure?

then is there anybody here that can give me some advice on how to race down the track real good? especialy on the launching part. and if lowering my tire psi will make a noticable difference. i felt like going home after my first run of 16.7.lol i stayed though and i stil had a fun time there. crap there are some fast freakin cars there.
