The toyos wrinkled up pretty bad but kept unloading and wrinkling up again over and over.

Not enough air in the rear and too much in the front when you hit the tires that hard.

You want the most sidewall to help deaden the hit of the clutch so the tires are more likely to grab the track. From there, it's all tire pressure, cal track setup and shock setup.

Yeah you can see in the video by freeze frames when the back wrinkle the fronts spin.

So going with the 16 pyos would give me more sidewall than the 17s. I think I might just get slicks as hard as these tires get hit.

He sure does. Get ahold of him he's the man. Congrats on the record, but don't stop now I wanna see 9's!

Sooner or later I think the stock motor is gonna speak up. However it ran great all 5 passes and 3 dyno pulls saturday. I split a rubber cap I had on a coolant line on the dyno I guess. That's the only problem she gave me.
Wasn't worried about her one bit.
