1.6's all day with truck tracks
and 1.6's all day with JDM 58" Rancho Style
1.63 is my best, my worse ever Hoosier 60ft is 1.78
(and thats only because I had too much air in it)
AMOF I took 2 lbs out and then ran the 1.63 an hour later
Stock Tranny, Convertor, etc.....

Rob, or anyone else, svt150 and myself are both running Hoosier 26x16x10 slicks with C07 compound. Would you care to share tire pressures you found best results?

I know every setup requires something different, but I am still curious.

Thanks

Judd

Trying to find out what my issue is as we speak, just don't know. I've been told it's the 355 gears with 28" tires. Gonna try some et streets next before i swap gears.

I tried ripping from an idle to pushing it to just before stall and still no luck Even on prepped tracks.
Food for thought. We had an L locally that ran good mid-12's but coud never get decent 60 ft. (1.8-1.9 I think) No one could determine problem until tranny broke and converter was upgraded at same time. Problem turned out to be a bad converter. Huge improvement.

Best results with 10" Hoosiers on 10" rims is generally 15-16 psi
