It's a great day, it's like 80 degrees and sunny. I am not going to be able to make it there untill later around 7 or 8. If I can get out of work early, I'll be there around 7:30. I am looking to run twice. I want to test out my slicks. (26x11.6x16 et streets) traction bars, and my upper pulley out.
1 question I have about the launch. I have heard to leave at idle, and also to leave at 1100-1500 rpm. And that WILL flash the computer/converter and it isnt best. What have you found is the best launch on et streets? The tpi should be around 15-17 correct? and warm them up good, 3-5 second smokey burn out. anything else? I was having 1.89-1.90 60 foots on F1's and I really want to get them down. What shoud I expect with the et streets, (w/ stock converter) and how can I get the best short times? Thanks, Shane McKenna
