Going to a Show/Race

This saturday is the AEI Show and Go at my local drag strip sponsored by aeiperformance.com. There will be a shit load of cars again and I am gonna race. Unfortunately I will be in the FI class, and be running against South Bend Clutches 9 second single turbo Supra with a 200 shot of NX that's sole purpose is to reduce turbo lag through second gear. besides that I got a shit load of tight cars around here. Maybe I will win the "Most Original" Category Huh?
But as far as racing, with the n2o should I just put 92 octane in? Or 92 plus a Octane booster, or just race fuel? Ive been told to lower the pressure in my front two tires as well. I am not going to remove my sub and shit just because its a show too. Well any other suggestions? YES i will post pics!

Just make sure you leave your auto alone and don't try to shift it! Other than that good luck! That would be so fun to get spanked by that supra! Try to get a video if possible.

Run 93 octane or higher (if it exists).

I ran my best ET with 93 octane and 104 Octane boost from Pep Boys.

Don't use racing fuel!

I lowered the front pressure in my Nitto Drag Radials to 20 PSI. However, if you're running regular street radials, don't lower the pressure too much (don't go below 28 psi) or it may actually HURT your ET!

Expect your ET to be a bit higher with your sub(s), spare tire, and jack as compared to removing them.

Good luck and have FUN!
