Default school me on bias ply tires....please..

ok i went to the track and spun both n/a passes ...1st pass was set at 18.5psi spun a little enough to wheel hop a little.....1.8 60ft...

2nd run though psi was the same spun till half track and gave up...got back to the pits and had 20 psi....i guess it gained a lil from the 2 burnouts....

3rd pass 75 shot car hooked ok....1.7 60 ft pressure was set at 15psi....is this about rite or should i run lower psi???ive got a money race on the 2nd against an 03 cobra and i need to dead hook to beat him n/a ...he dont want an n20 race.....

my setup is a 4k stall 3.73s and a mild cammed bolt on car....the tires im runnin are the non radial e/t streets....

how much tire pressure should i be using and how long of a burnout....ive raced for years but never a car this powerful.....
any advice will be greatly appreaciated.....

Of course he doesn't want a nitrous race. HAHA I would try to drop them to about 12 and see if they'll dead hook.

Agreed. Drop 'em to 12 and lift that front.
