only like 1psi. as long as i'm boosting of the line. I won't do it right away. Like you I need to get a good feel for the car. Plus, there's no way we are gonna grip with DRs It has to be on some stickier tires. Either slicks or some hoosiers or MT with 0 threadwear.

You liked the way they gripped didn't you????? I got mine through ebay. I just keep a search saved for the size i'm looking for so I can get instant emails when something comes up! Good sets come up from time to time. Right now there are a bunch of used R888s. Don't know about 19s though.

I will tell you one thing though 500 rwhp is breaking these loose on certain pavements. I can't imagine what 50-80 more hp will do but will hopefully find out soon.........................................

I should be going to the track to check my boy blue break into the 13s :-)
I won't be running my car. My meth pump went out n didn't get to tune on meth. The tuner thought the meth was working and tuned it just a tad aggressive. I cant race it until I replace the pump and take it back to him :-( I should be recieving the pump today and taking the car to him Monday morning for the final tune. I should be hitting bout 550-70sh w the meth tune!!!!!!
Problem is I have an oil leak that they need to address and will be leaving te car there until they fix it. But as soon as I get the car back.... It's track time Bwwwuuuaaahhaaahhaaahhaaa

well got back from houston last night.... went over with Jtran on what was next and well im hoping that we got only a spun bearing and nothing else bent... they will pull the motor out disassemble and send it to the machine shop for a report on what happened ... after that put it back together and break in the motor and if all goes well start enjoying this project car!

only down side is holidays are coming up and i hope the machine shop dont take that much longer ... so i might be looking at another couple of months... ill keep you guys posted on the progress!

So far looks like Dave will be hitting the track to represent sooner!

heres the last video i got a few days before the issue!
