More details on the car? A4 or M6?

12 psi is really low, especially for just bolt-ons. That's hurting your MPH no doubt.

I was spinning real bad I started the night at a 2.3 60ft on 25 psi kept dropping it and went best on 12 everytime


It's a a4 car with 3800 stall was only getting about 2700 out of it or I would blow tires off

Pretty good 60'.. Should have a bit more trap in her though. Did you get a good burnout out of the water, etc? Shouldn't have to run that low on tire pressure...

Is the track prep bad? I pull pretty consistent 1.85-1.89 60s on street tires, but the track I go to is prepped very well.
