any advice! goin to the track 2mrw.... | Thread profile

you're taking your interior out? which part? well dude. first time is always the scariest! haha. the main thing is to go not expecting much and to just have a good time. deflating the front tires usually helps a little. well launching just takes lots and lots of practice. first off....don't do burnouts on your street tires. i used to do this ....and it makes the tires feel like ...

2100 sounds about right to me. Keep track of your 60ft times. That should tell you how good your doing. Shoot for 2.2 or better. If you land in the 2.4 range 60ft then id say mess with your tire psi. GL

oh my bad man...thought it was the first time! haha yeah man our maxima's are nice and torquey so its rough to get traction! good luck slipping the clutch! high 2.1's and 2.2's are good man. shoot for that!

the sidewall heigh does play a small roll in what PSI you oughta run. with a really small sidewall, letting air out will result in cupping more quickly, so you should let less air out than if you had taller sidewall tires. i dont know what sidewall height you are running, but if its something like a 235/40 then 27-28 ish is what seemed best for me, as compared to the 24 i run on my stockers (...

I went to the track tonight with my 05 Altima SE-R 6-spd. Best time I ran under 85 degree weather and HIGH humiditiy with basically no mods (CAI w/ larger filter, Stock SE-R exhasut, and lowering springs) I ran a 14.6 @ 97 mph w/ a 60ft at 2.3 secs. I dont warm up my tires, just drop the pressure to 28 psi (stock 18" forged aluminum wheels sitting on 225/45 pirelli pzero nero tires)
