Re: Drag radial life/ max passes ?
Just a little update .
Ran 2 weeks ago at national grp 1 ihra event .
Weather was damp leading into event and on qualifying day .
Temp was 80s , GOW 100-108 . DA 2800-3500 or so
Friday track seemed to have minimal prep . Blew the tyres off first pass , 2,75 sixty , shifted into 2nd in the sixty
2nd pass sort of hooked , 1.745 sixty , 10.80 @126 pass . So lost 3/10s in sixty but got down track
Saturday was the same weather
Rnd1 took the win . 1.47 sixty . Dialed 10.50 went 10.53@117 on brakes .
Ok got something to dial against
Famous last words . Blew the tyres off again , in fact a mate said there was smoke off tyres like a burnout . The cherry didnt help
So i guess these Hoosiers arent liking my Plymouth , transbrake whatever ?
Wint be out for a few more weeks , work situation .
May have to try footbraking ?
Not sure about another $1200 on tyres .
