Well im seriously considering making the 2.5-3 hour trek to the drag strip tomorrow night and am looking for any pointers or tips from guys that have run at the track before.
I know my truck is a 2nd gen but since its got a hemi know i figured maybe you huys might have some advice. Ive only ever made 2 passes down the 1/4 mile and they were 2 years apart. So if I do decide to make the trip down I'd like a few pointers.
Im already planning on ditching as much weight as I can before I go and unfortunately I'll be forced to run on my 20's and nearly bald street tires but they do seem to hook up not to bad considering what they are.
Anybody got any tips for launching and whatnot?
