Hey Russ,

Unfortunately you've got a pretty 'thin' sidewall, so any tire wrinkle will be virtually non-existant. Of course all the BFD drag radials have a steel sidewall.

I ran mine at 16-18 psi on a stock suspension and only managed a best of 1.91 (see sig). Alot of 2.0's so I think alot of it has to do with the suspension (the main reason I am upgrading my suspension this spring).

Your best bet would be to have a nice sticky track with lots of VHT compound and a 'ride the clutch out' method of launching.

Good luck and let us know how you do.
