Tire pressure Q.
I think I'm sure when racing the 1/4 mile your tire pressures are to be at ~24 psi for the rear and ~50 psi for the front. Is it recommended to change these pressures if your racing in high temps. Going this weekend. Forecast calls for 100 F - 103 F. I think the altitude is about 2500'. All info is appreciated.

Re: Tire pressure Q. (pk2401)
Are they the stock runcraps? We're talking 1/4 mile track right?
I ran 25 in the back at the track and didn't mess with the front. I would go a little lower, maybe 20-22. This is because after doing a few short burnouts you'll see the pressure go up on the DIC.
Remember to turn off the traction control!

There are not the run craps. They are the stock wheels for the Z. The're Eagle F1's. And yes it will be at a 1/4 mile track. Thanks.
