Threw the 29 x 10 Hoosier bias's out...put on some 30 x 9 D05 Hoosiers @ 14# cold...Caltracs bottom hole no preload...shocks on 6 (Rancho 9 ways)...3700# Pink Pig cranks a 147.1, 147.3 and a 147.5 60 foots today. Usually a good 60 was 1.52 or so. Normal ET of 6.96 or so dropped to 6.84 in the 1/8th. And at an Airport drag strip to boot.... Man it's been a long road but I think I finally got something right!! Now to play with the settings on the rear a bit.... I'm curious now!!!

Thats great to hear. My best 60 is a 1.50 on just SS springs but your 60 is very good now. Congrats on the new best et also. I run the 30 x 9 Hoosier radial slicks at around 16 psi. My best 1/8 is 6.83 so you have easy 10.70's. Ron

Nope...18200 with the D05 compound.....guys use them in Stock Eliminator. You could tell they were sticky before I even mounted them. All I can say is even when the track went away on us on Saturday evening, the 60' was still a 1.50. I f I had had the old tires on there, I'd guarantee you the 60 woulda been a 1.60 or worse. I'm certainly pleased....I'm gonna try a bit more pressure and try some preload on the bars. At least I have a base point now.
