I finally got to go to the track with my new Hoosier RX7 set up. This is my first time ever racing on a good tire set up. I was getting the feel of it. I did ok. But still need practice on these. 60' still needs help. But over all I think I did ok. It has been. While sense I been out at the strip. I did like 12 runs. First few runs was on 18psi in the tires all the way around. Then changed it up to 16psi to the tires. I did try 14psi in the rear but it was to swirly and hurt my mph. So I think I will stick to 16psi in the rear and try 14psi in the front. But here is a break down of all my runs.

I need to take better log. I should of wrote on my time slips of what psi was in the tires on them runs.

 

Did you have the boost turned down? You should have went way faster than that with 615hp!
What gives?

 

yea you have an issue some where.. thats what i trap with 350hp

 

This was on the 93oct tune.
Plus my first time ever using hoosiers. Was messing with the psi a lot in the tires.

 

Yeah their were a few times I missed 4th gear. (stock tranny)

 

whats your 2-step set at?

 

You shouldn't be hitting 4th in the 8th mile. What does your 2.4 rev too??

 

77xx - 78xx rpms

 

59xx rpm

 

next time out raise your 2-step to like 6200 and prolly go up a couple from there, 3 and 7 look like your best alot of practice and you could easily take off a half-sec shifting faster and launching harder. but your mph is kinda low? for 500whp dj . i'm sure more seat time is what is needed G/L

 

I see. Still should be faster imo. Turn that rev limiter to 8500 man! That motor can handle that all day long! Shifting into 4th in the 1/8 hurts your time SOOO bad......
