Vlad Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Yea I think I could have ran better on the street today. But then again I think my tires are playing a big roll on my 2.4 60ft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hwilli1647545487 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 I did a practice pass on a straight street when I got home, and my car dead hooked on the street w/30psi in the tires. My best launch at trails was a 1.9 with mostly 2.0-2.2. I was also told I was spinning a TON. So long story short, my car hooks better on the street than at trails. True Story.

nurkvinny Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 my car hooks better on the street than at trails. True Story. I think I typed this exact phrase last year after trying Trails again "because it had to be better than it used to be." It wasn't. 1.9 60' on 31x18.5 Hoosiers. Spray wasn't an option until 2nd gear. Sad part is I live 4-5 minutes from the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOLLAR BILL Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 I run faster times at Kilkare N/A then I do on spray at trails. Long story short, took the car out there today to make a few passes, first pass I got 11.26 @ 136 with a steller 1.9 60'. I didnt even spray till top of 2nd and when it came on it was a fun ride with the car goin all over place. 2nd run didnt spray till 3rd and still car almost went into the wall 3 times. And I had 10# of air in the tires and it still wouldnt hook for shit slipping the clutch all through first gear. I will never go to trails again. you mean to tell me pro stock car run there an do test an tune there an you cant hook up.are you sure it the track an not you.

SRTurbo04 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 i was right behind you in line on ur first pass and u just skated that thing side ways the first 60 feet but nice runs for what u could hookup for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattsv8 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 i can say that im about .050 slower at trails. than kilkare. but kilkare has way better air, i dont really think its the track because i tend to spin more at kilkare. which hellps my mph but my 60 ft is harder at trails. kilkare 9 sec run was 1.40, trails 10.005 run was 1.380. And im not a fan of m&h at all. Sam do you run mah tires? is it becuase of the size you need. we have had many more cars hooking harder on the mickey tires.

thorne Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Honestly, I have had better hooking public streets then what was out there today. qft When the AWD guys are bitching about traction shit's just not right. I know when I was out for franklin county deputy day.I had traction issues. I spun into second and had trouble hooking off the line. I hook better on 71.

Shearer Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 They sprayed the whole track in the morning and it was not bad, not great though, for the first few passes of the day. All went to shit after a few street tire cars got on it though. Do they have slick only nights there? I would imagine it would be somewhat ok on of those nights.

Mojoe Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 I'm going through my footage now. I didn't run yesterday, but heard nothing but bad disappointment from people who did. I'll post what I have soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike C Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 The place is a complete joke. Phil has some pretty large nads for even trying to take his tube frame car down that stupid track. The prep was OK when he was literally the very first car down the track but it was shit about 20 minutes later. I didn't even see them reprep the damn thing once. I will never race my car there and will always travel 2 hours instead to NRP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
