Good 60ft + shit MPH = good ET??? WHY?

thats the thing, i told you to leave it on 20, and practice on that, get a sick ass 60ft time, if its too hard, then that is when you start to lower your psi. haha

if you get your 60ft time lower, then obviously, your mph at that instant will be faster, but for the remaining 380metres, your mph will gradually become lower... it all comes back down to psi in tyres

Cool, thanx for the info. I'm new at this and always looking to learn

you cant be serious ? lol. i've read numoerous post by you, and it seems like you know what you're tlaking aobut.. doesnt seem like you're NEW at this.. haha pulling my leg ??;)

I'm with ALLMTR. I have no idea how you still maintain tyre pressures is the absolute solution to mph and 60' time relationships.

it appears, for high powered cars - tyre pressures wouldnt play a big deal

but for such small cars with no power like blitz and myself, i have experiemnted, and it does make a diff in mph. not only myself, but other users such as .:F[L]Y:. and luzinit aswell

it made a diff for me!

runnin 32 psi on my wheels..take off didnt get to much traction..2nd gear was losing traction still throughout the rev range and then in 3rd gear it felt like the car wasnt stickin so i had to back off and change to 4th..

now wen we put it down to 28 psi for me i got better traction off take off..and didnt lost out on traction and felt stable..then again..this thread is about 60ft lol..i did a 2.2 with 32psi..and 2.044 with 28 psi and still gained more mph..although i did back off on the 1st run for a lil bit

i might as well join in. If you want a good 60ft then u drop the tyre pressure but it will effect your final ET. Due to more drag or resistence. I keep my tyre pressure at 20psi for the whole night and just worked at trying to improve the launch. It sorta helped as i got a beater pb.

guess it just comes down to practice, the more you go the better you will get. Unless your a pro driver or just talented and can do sick ass 60ft's first go.
