Helmet? Hmmmm..... They never told me anything when I went. Those are very good times though!!

Yea they got rules for safety items as your time gets lower. break into the 13s and you have to wear a helmet.... never gotten past the 13s (hopefully this weekend, if I can afford to even go) so don't know the rest of 'em. I never actually wear the helmet though.. I just keep it in the car.
Matter of fact last time I went I didn't bring mine... so some chick in a 13 sec M3 Roadster let me borrow hers...needless to say her head was way smaller than mine. She was cool as hell though. |
what about yokohama A032R's? i know they are meant for auto-x n stuff.. but can they offer anything for drag racing?
|
you can use them for drag racing but a drag radial is much better

im scared to break something https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif whats the best way to warm them up correctly, and what psi should be in them?
|
you don't HAVE to warm them up. i am beginning to advise slipping the clutch..... so that you don't break anything. unfortunately i have to do the same if i expect to drive to and from the track
|
Yea, that's one thing that scares me too.. breaking something.. like an axle.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png but if you just start slipping the clutch instead of dropping the clutch, there will be more wear on your clutch.. espically if you have an OEM clutch. right?
|
your gonna burn up the clutch but you can still drive home on a burned clutch https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png
