Englishtown Tonight

Just got back. Ok. Lemme brake it down like this.....


I/H/E/SP+Michelin Pilot Sport A/S= NO TRACTION @track


Two weeks in a row i can't hook up at ALL resulting in 2.5 sec 60' times MPH is at 95.05 so my headers are pulling me but that's it.

Tires only have about 1.4k miles on them so i might need to rotate. I will wait for the rotation and then go back once more but i have a feeling that i might need to invest in some nitto drag radials or some hardcore sticky tires on the front two rims.

Anybody else with my combo having problems hooking up????

Zapata do you have the stocks still? i hooked up ok with them not as good as i would like but it's better than buying new tires!!! Sorry i could not make it maybe in a couple of weeks we can all plan togo down or maybe we can check out atco!!! it's closer to sea level and that's the fastest track around!!!

Naw, in my stupidity i let them have the tires I might buy some stocks from somebody. However, I would still need to buy two front rims.

Stocks aren't bad for drag racing if they are warmed up nicely. Especially if you have power mods. Ugh. I think i will need to buy tires. I don't know if i'll do it anytime soon.

Btw, I'll be calling your buddy to setup a dyno session. I'll email you to let you know about the time. Maybe we can meet.

Nope. Although i wasn't concerned about the time because it was 70 degrees outside and we know how bad the cls is in warm weather.
