11.13 my best pass yet!

Ran the car last night on slicks for the first time...wow they are a little nerve racking on the big end. Car weighs 4400+ with me in it.(can't remember exactly)

It was 84* not bad for a Florida summer evening. I ran the 17" Bogarts with 28x10 Hoosiers with 14.5 psi. First pass was 1.65 60' my best with DR was 1.75. I made 5 passes and ended up doing better each pass. I got my best 60' down to 1.58 and my best ET was 11.13 at 125.7 I did lift for a split on the big end to get the car back in the groove it was getting really squirrelly.
I think with a 2 step to get my launch RPM consistant and some practice I will be in the 10's.

No screws in the tire and tubeless, they did move about .75-1" after 5 passes, so not enough for me to put screws in them just yet.

Congrats, I've always had some swaying with slicks, it's worse when you run the tires down around 10-12 psi.

I have a (6point) cage, blower, a speaker box with 3 10" subs (75-100 lbs), and I weigh 220lbs. The car is just under 4000 stock, with out a driver.

From what I have read and I will try myself to see, but nothing under 14psi gained anything on 60ft times on the 17" Bogart /Hoosier combo and only made it worse on the big end as you said.

Good to meet you too, I think so I have to go off for work so it will be November for next time so it should be cooler out for sure and that should do it.

I ave the RPM bolt in, its very nice...except they sent me the wrong door bars and I drilled the floor already and it didn't fit right so I kind of have a one off as they had to build me some custom foot plates and sandwich plates. I am also cutting the floor and inserting a box to do away with the sandwich plate and weld the box into the sub-floor and tie it all together under the car.
