Help me get traction.
Well, I took my car to the track for the first time this weekend. Mostly becuase it was Midnight Madness and it was free to enter and run.
Here is my setup: 98 Spyder GST Dejon UICP Greddy Type RS BOV MBC set at 15psi K&N Cone filter My time was horrible, I ran three times and spun all the way through first gear. I ran a 15.3. Is this norm for my setup? Maybe my nerves got to me and I launched it too hard? I am running the stock turbo, maybe I need new tires? The tread is alright on them. Also, when I am on the street and I put it to the floor (and get traction), it hesitates for a second before going. Is this due to too much pressure up front and not having an exhaust to back it up? Does a hard UICP make like a hollow hissing sound? |

for more trackion get a GSX lol.... no, for more trackion, you just need to lauch the right way, I know DSM 1000Q website tell you how to lauch a GST (as well as others). and plus for full traction, that why they make racing tires just for tracks ^_^~~!

or that, but that would be too much work and cost too much.

The track is going to be slicker then the street .. Tires are one of the best upgrades you can do .. If you spend a little bit extra and get a sticker tire, then you'll probably be running closer to 14.3
