first off, my suspension is set up for road racing, but i can adjust my front struts...should i set them soft for better weight transfer? right now they are all the way stiff. as far as what i need to bring...ive got the basics...i think. i have a fire extinguisher, helmet, tire pressure gauge( i was told to run about 28-30 psi on my 245/45/17 street tires) extra oil, dial-in window stuff...is there anything im forgetting? wish me luck....hopefully i can pull off some decent times...290hp/327ftlbs to the wheels on an 88 gt 5 speed with weight reduction. im thinking low 13s

Shocks soft and if you want to lose the front sway bar. Street tires usually hook best when they are properly inflated. Do some test burnouts to see if tyou are over/under inflated. Hopefully someone who goes to the strip alot more than i do will chime in. Oh dont forget your tools! and if you dont have a girl make sure and bring some hair ties(trust me on this one). Good luck and have fun
