Default crappy tires

i went to the track tonight and am not happy with the results. with my other tires i wasnt getting much traction so i dropped the psi to 22, burned out and finally got traction. my 60ft was 2.096. the only problem is that i dont want to burn the rubber off my good tires so i switched to the stockies with 22psi and was burning them good....here were some of my times...

60ft time---2.273, 2.332, 2.346, 2.296
1/4 times--14.245, 14.626.14.482, 14.552

as u can c the stocks sucked royal *** and i wasnt hooking at all, i was fishtailing and almost getting sideways everytime. im pissed off and about to buy some drags..

sorry just had 2 vent my frustration out

man , sorry about your 60's I dont belive in Slicks on street cars , unless you plan on driving on slicks every where you go. Thats why Drag radials are ideal for me.

ur actually not supposed to burn out on normal tires, it actually makes you have less traction, something in the rubber makes it slicker unlike dr's where it makes em sticky
