I will be getting my bracket ride to the the track in the next month or so and would like ideas on what pressure to run in my slicks. Running a Hoosier 28x10.5x15 D07 on an 8" wide wheel (couldn't fit a 10" wheel). Car is about 3000#, PG, Trans Brake 1.80 1st, 4.30 rear. Mild motor probably 550-600HP on a good day. Thoughts? 272" Spitzer 540 Chevy The Blower Shop XR1 FTI XPM Series Converter FTI Level 6 Powerglide 3.69@199 .916 60' 2017 Bradenton Heads Up Madness Open Outlaw Champ 2018 PDRA T/D #5 2019 PDRA T/D #2 2020 Retired From T/D Competition.... 2020 Bradenton NMCA Hemi Shootout Winner 2021 getting back into bracket racing with a Gen3 Hemi powered 87 Cutlass. | ||

I would start at 10.5 and have a helper vidio it up close -the tire that is -playback slowmo you know what it should look like-60 fts. will tell ya also The difference between ignorance and stupidity. Ignorance is lack of knowledge. Stupidity is the inability to learn. Don't be stupid | |||

I was going to say 11-11.5, which worked for me on a nearly identical setup, but my wheels were 10" wide with 10.5's. After re-reading your post, with a wheel width 2-2.5" narrower than the tire, it will take a lower pressure to achieve the right footprint. So I will say X2 to Vetmans recommended 10.5 PSI for a starting point. (If it was an 8 inch slick on a 10 inch wheel, I'd go 12.5). Dan "Jim" Moore Much too young to feel this damn old!! | |||
