over in clint?
Just was curious if anyone ran on it and what did you do to achieve traction on either lane at that track with street tires.
Going to watch the test and tune there tonight, to take some notes & enjoy the atmosphere. If i had a helmet i'd see what my girl could muster, but can't run without a D.O.T. Legal full face helmet there. So she just gets to sit out in the parking area at the track, without getting to have herself any fun.
I do have very soft zr rated 225/55zr16's on 16x8 rims all the way around, so i figured they probally would hook better than most street tires would.
Just wondering what i could possibly do to minimize spinning tires if the track is alittle slick.
Once i can make a couple runs on the track to have an idea of what she's capable of, just to know a ballpark of where she is speedwise in the 1/8th and 1/4 mile distance.
Hopefully i can acquire a helmet soon and get to take her down the track a couple times to see where she is at, be the first time that we both been to a drag strip. Be fun to experience it from more than a spectator view.
