Lowering tire pressure @ the track
Everyone talks about lowering tire pressure at the drag strip. What do you guys use to put air back into the tires for the ride home?

yup, get a cheapo campbell hausfield from Wal Mart for about 40.00. takes about 5 minutes to go from 28 lbs to 35 lbs in a tire but since you are checking over the entire car after racing (hopefully) you have plenty of time.j
I also use it for wheeling in my Jeep. It isn't quite big enough for that but patience is a virtue. With a set of tire plugs in the car you can recover from pretty much any tire failure. Then use the compressor to air em back up.

That's what I use as well... but I went for the 11 gallon... sharing air with others (in exchange for set-up info)... it fits forward of the strut brace... a 5 gallon tank would be a better choice when room is a consideration. The advantage of going with the tank is speed of inflation over the little compressor...
