well..last year I had to ease off the line and then punch it at the 60' mark to get that 13.56 E.T....and that was with crappy gears and a 7.5 rear!
My track will have it's first test & tune session on the 20th of this month so I'll just have to mess around with launch speeds and tire pressure I guess.
BTW, I was also told that if you run slicks, they like you to have metal valve stems and stock style lug nuts........why?
