Hello All, I am trying to get some assistance. I have a traction problem at San Antonio Raceway. The track prep routinely sucks and no one can get traction. I am on street tires, but I plan to buy a set of drag radials when I can afford them. Until then is there anything that can be done to maximize the traction at this track when the prep is bad.
Some examples of how bad the track prep are, a guy from a local car club running a 08 gt auto with headers, o/r x, axleback, tfi streetfighter converter, frpp intake manifold, detroit cams, jlt intake, tune (i dont remember which one) 4.10's and hoosier slicks (28 or 30in tire I cannot remember) was running normally low twelves with bad d.a but saturday when he raced his best was a 13.6. Another example, a 13 or 14 gt500 running 13.4 at 120, and a gtr (auto)with several mods running 12's spinning all 4 tires.
My best run of the night was 12.7 @113 with my new tune, but I was spining thru 2nd and slipped 3rd. my best mph was on a 13.04 run at 114. I dropped my psi to 25lbs and launched at idle twice and 1k for the last run.
SVTP gurus is there anything I can do?
Also the D.A saturday was 15-1800 all night
