[Nasty1970]

This was a conversation i just had with some friends....the tires obviously grab better at lower PSI, but how does this affect the top end i wonder? Because a maximum(according to tire) inflated tire has less resistance at higher speeds, I wonder if the tire pressure cancels itself out in this case, or is traction more important? I know traction is incredibly important, but if a consistent launch could be obtained with properly inflated tires, would the ETs be lower?
I’m not sure this is an answerable question because the results are probably negligible, but I’m curious. I run drag tires on my 1970, and run about 18 PSI. But the design of those tires is completely different than the Z-rated Pirellis on my 2011....Food for thought! Food for thought!
