Default Re: Going to track for the 1st time

I had my tires 35 psi rear, and fronts at 45psi.
I stalled up to about 1500 rpm and floored it at launch. Didn't spin to bad. But don't expect good 60 footers & 1/8 mile, unless you get some sticky tires. <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />
