Racers, help me, track day Sunday
« on: September 27 2013, 08:22:28 PM »
Okay, I'm a once or twice a year track trip guy. Back tires are NOT good for this but its what I got so.....Any tips, tricks, set-up help, staging advice, launching advice would be greatly appreciated. My buddy will be going with his supercharged 2010 mustang and I hope to beat him. He also has street tires. see sig for what I have
 
THANKS   :atbeer:

Build less boost from the launch and try and get as much traction as possible then run him down mid way down the track.   :player:

yeah, I would not worry about it.  I would just ease into it and mat it smoothly.  If that does not work you can always slow down the boost in first and second with the chip

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.
