Also your tire pressure plays a good part as well... I run 32-34 psi in the front (helps grip) and 40 psi in the rear (helps squat), and keep your under hood temps down as best you can (open hood in stageing lanes, manual fan switch helps), and as cool as it may be to rev at other ppl in the stageing lanes (esp. ricers

), remember that revving your motor causes heat, therefore increasing underhood temps..And as for the 60' times.. Big ups to TDC for the tips he gave me, that helped put me @ the 2.02 mark!

i was a dummy and had 42 psi in mine

I run about 25 psi in the front. When they get hot it will be up to 30 in no time. remember that once the tires are hot the psi increases a good bit
