Tom,
Great picture! graemlins/thumbsup.gif
And it actually brought up a question...
What tire pressure do you run in the Hoosiers?
Just curious.
Kenny and I had a phone discussion the other night on the subject of heavy drag cars and air pressures. Want to compare notes...

20 pounds with a 19.5 Minimum...no more, no less. Very intensive testing to find optimum pressure. There IS ET in your tire pressure.
Thanks !!

Thanks Tom. graemlins/thumbsup.gif
That just confirms what Ken and I discussed.
I was running 10 lbs this past weekend and blowing the tires away.
Ran 15 lbs the previous week (at CB'04) and the car hooked decent. At the time was afraid to run less because the tires weren't screwed to rims.
My wife's hobby is photographing sports events, particularly drag racing. I'll show her your pic for inspiration. Very :cool:

Does ANn have any good pics of my heap? I don't have a single decent picture of the car launching. In fact, this is the best one that I've ever had taken:

BTW... Sweet pic Tom. I think what people fail to realize is that you're leaving like that on a salt flat gear.
