Lowering Tire PSI??

Is lowering your psi in your tires good for drag racing. I heard it helps alot but then others say it kills your top end.

If you're having traction problems it is. Just lower your rear tires.

Lower your rears. Trust me in a NA 240 you don't have to worry about a drop in tire PSI killing your top end. drop em to about 20-22 psi, it gives you a bit better sidewal flex and a bigger contact patch.

Good call there John, less rolling resistance is always good

Better yet, I was going to post this but I was leaving work...

get your dummy tire and one from a friend and stick em on the front. They'll be fine for the 1/4 mile depsite their low speed rating.

Small, light, and thin.
