Drag Racing
I am hoping to do some drag racing in Connectcut. I need some pointers on where the tracks are and what the best way I can get the most out of the vette. I have 04 C5. It has a Blackwing filter. I have installed SuperMax headers cat X pipe, and a 160 thermo The car has been on the dino. What a difference. Not the same car. I need tires that can take that extra power. I have run flats on it now, not a good thing
I sure would appreciate the help.

Post in the Drag Race section and the Northeast section. More exposure and someone from the area should see it and answer you. Englishtown NJ has the monthly Corvette Challenge. 
I know the Conn. guy's go there and race each month.
