Default Little Launching help plz
Well so far i have Supermaxx headers x pipe vararam and some 315-45-17 nittos. I put down a 12.29 @113mph with a 1.82 60'. What presure are you guys running in these? What do you guys launch at. I should be able to see some 1.7? 60's i would think. Any info would be great.
