What tyres are you running Ron? Maybe a better tyre would bring them down too? I noticed recently my tyres are HARD so am going to change them before I go out again.

It was more the tyre hight than the type
I was running 195 x 65 x 15 ( about 24 high) and on the first 2 runs I was changing into 4 and was running 14.8 and a 14.4. When I held it in third it was a running 14.2 but topping out at 6250 rpm about 80- 100 ft from the end
I think with some 205 x 70 x 15 (about 26" high) it would be worth a few more mph and a better ET by keeping it in thrid but running the higher tyre. Any thoughts ?

A quick post to say that following on from the full field at Bug Jam last month the provisional list of Outlaw Flat Four entrants for the Open Sports Nationals at Shakespeare County Raceway on August 21st, 22nd & 23rd currently stands at 18 cars so it should be a good weekend, hopefully in the sun!

Cheers for that, just trying to decide whether to go watch at avon park or the pod, can't do both as the babysitters(parents) will get a bit annoyed!!!! |

... Looks good Ben , whens it out? ... It's now in final production and is due out pretty soon, possibly early November. As soon as it's out there will be an update here.  |
