Default Re: Drag radial life/ max passes ?

Final instalment

Ran track championship round , 4 passes . dang red eliminator round 1 .
Ran on Saturday , 1/8th mile races , 8 passes .
Tyres seem happiest at 23psi , did try 24 for 2 passes no improvement .
This is my take on the runs .
The Hoosier is slower than the Pro Bracket Radial , 0.02 - 0.03 slower in sixty and all way down track . MPH is very similar .
If it spins , did twice , it does not recover as well as the PBR . One spin I expected due to poor burnout , car corkscrewed in burnout . They do need a reasonable burnout with my car . No just light haze them .
It is probably more sensitive to track prep . I am sure track champ rounds are better than T&T and private days where you wont see them drag the track during the day unless there is oil down .
The Hoosier has been really consistent .
Doubt I will race Dec final meeting , 4th place but cannot get into top 2 .
Will probably run in January national grp 1 meeting . But will also be HOT , but track prep will be at its best .
thanks again ,

Tex
