btw nice to meet you.
ghostmax301, I had my y-pipe/downpipe made by a fab shop in the area.
I went to the track again tuesday. I got there late and got 2 runs in.
60'------2.148
1/4-----12.832
MPH----114.63
I didnt really launch hard enough and 2nd gear was all wheel spin until the very top.
The second run was just terrible, just like last time where I had wheel spin in 2nd, 3rd and 4th somehow and I just got on the brakes early. That run was a 13.4 @ 94

You are pretty consistent (except for the 13.4 of course). Time to get some better tires I'd say.

I will be getting slicks in the future, know of any good sizes for 16x7.5" wheels?
You know what, I forgot you were on DRs. I knew that back when I posted a week ago but I'd since forgotten. I'm sure you can do better on the DRs with more practice. You need to drop the pressure in them I think, how low were you running them. I noticed in your original post you were still running them at like 30psi.
As for slicks the only option you have for that wheel that I am aware of would be the Hoosier Quick Time Pro. It is a grooved bias ply tire like a MT ET Street. They offer a 26x9.5x16" size. That is the only bias ply drag tire I know of that is offered by any manufacturer in an appropriate size for that wheel, or for any concievable 16" wheel on a maxima. I've checked Hoosier, Toyo, Mickey Thompson, Dunlop, Goodyear, Bridgestone and M&H.

To save some serious $$ to try 16" track tires, you could look at this recycler -they have delivered twice for me - make them a lower offer - you might be surprised at how cheap you can get some wider tires:

and they're great throw-away tires for burnout contests!

Most of the SRT-4 guys run their DR's from 15-25psi so next time im out, Ill start around 25psi and work my way down.
