Friday I tested both cars. The dragster was deadly in the 6 passes we made with the 60 foots and ET moving thousands. For the last pass of the day I begrudgingly agreed to do something that Kyle has been saying he want to try. I agreed, certain he’d run slower both in ET and mph. 1 pass and all went to shyt. While we lost .7 mph we ran .04 quicker to 60 foot and ET.
What did we do?

Tires had about 60 passes on them and on their way to the junk pile. Ran them at 5 1/2 psi. Made 3 more passes on them yesterday before the rain stopped the show and lost 2 1/2 psi in 18 hours.

Kyle just soaped his 1st pair of empties and I’m installing casters on my air compressor.

I never thought slicks going flat in a couple of days bothered me until until I switched from MT to Hoosiers and had 1 less thing to worry about. The c1550s lost 1 lb. during the whole off season

This junk lost 2 1/2 psi in less than a day.

Greg Kelley had the best description for them
One side will be the "lead leaker" and lose air twice as fast
4x4's in your trailer under the 4 link brackets works well.....

Guess we’ll add MTs to the list of shyt ol Piggles has trashed people about for years and is now on his car. This would join 16v battery, stainless headers, and lithium batteries among others that I’m sure I’m forgetting about.
