Hey guys, Went to the track with my new Nitto555R's and couldnt seem to get them to hook. It was 90% humidity, would that make the track wet or just make it harder for the tires to dry after the burnout. They hook really good on the street but when i went to the track it was a mess. Anyone have any ideas?


Thanks for your time!

I also tried lowering pressure. Started at 32ish and worked my way down to about 14. I made sure they were both the same PSI.

ha ha ha.... I also forgot to mention the RPM's i tried to launch at. with my street tires i couldnt launch at anything above idle, so thats where i started with my Nittos. worked my way up to about 2500 rpm. I tried every kind of burn out and at the end of the night i tried a 10 second burn out...lots of smoke but thats about it.


Could be the track and the horrible weather but if you have any other ideas let me know!
