Well Steve lowers his tire PSI to like 18 PSI at the track so that right there causes a lot of rolling resistance on his car and lowers his trap speed. When we raced from about 0-90 I was probably going about 3 MPH quicker at the end. Steve got his low trap speed on a very cool day(which is great for traps) and I got got mine on a humid 80 degree(which of course is bad for racing) so I don't think track conditions is the case. I think we went to the same track too? Did you do your 14.3 at NED Steve?

Erica just so you know the road we raced on was basicaly a 1/4 mile track, there are no houses around and you can see for about a 1/2 mile ahead of you. The only danger present is if a deer ran in front of my car(they only come out at night around here though).

ya i lower my tires a lot but it helps my short times so i'll keep doing it, i car more about the ET then the Trap.

and no i will not bring my car to NED EVER, i hate that track. i ran the 14.3 at island dragway in New Jersey.
