Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

Yep. They have no side wall and no bag and most of them have seen too many heat cycles too. Good for circuit terribly shite for drag racing. A good set of drag radials picked up .5 of a second in the 60ft. 2 seconds down to 1.5.

The lesson I learned from all this is to use a tyre for what it is built for. If you aren't you are pushing shit up hill.

So what you're saying is that you've back to back tested these particular tyres?

And the results show that drag radials had a higher coefficient of friction than slicks?

I told you the real world result just before. .5 of a second over the 60ft shows a big difference. You can use what ever you want, I never actually gave a shit

What do you mean? Hwp love seeing racing slicks on imports on the street. They love that sort of behaviour. :P

On that note, morning all!

Cost/gain analysis - $50 each and no drag bags slapping into arches/guards and better grip than semis

Morning all

Morning

Morning guys :)

    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well
