Last night I ran a 12.8 at 116mph. At the end of my run I was red lining 4th gear at 6000rpms. Im gonna buy some drag radials cuz im getting no traction. Should I buy a taller drag radial, and if I do, how much taller. Back tires are 275/35/18.
You wan't to be at the top of 4th gear as you go through the traps. But with winter coming your car will make alittle more power so you could run into problems with running out of rpm. So I say yes to the slightly taller tire. If you go to the track alot invest in some 15" wheels.
I went to my car and looked at the pill in my shift light and I have a 5.4 pill. I thought it was a 6.0, Im such an idiot. So maybe I was around 5700 going through the trap. Its hard to look at the gauges when your racing. How did you figure out my rpm.
