          As for the spinning don't worry about the tire or your setup...

          try the track again another day... You know how OrlandoSpinWorld can be at times...

          maybe aim for Firday June 11th... they will pre-prep the track like hell for the Quick 32, Super-Pro, Sportsman day on the 12th...

            Nice baseline runs.

            I would maybe try 15psi with the ET Streets. Remember that slicks will heat up and tire psi increase +2. You can try 15 and then you are running at 17, or whatever you want to do. I would not go lower than 14psi cold because you can spin the tires on the rim.

            I'm guessing you probably peak at 5800 or so, is that the case? I would shift no more than 10% past peak HP.

            I think your car could probably work a little better in the first half of the track, your 1/8th mph and lower than I would expect your car is flying from the 1/8th to the traps. I think you will need at least 89mph in the 1/8th to run 11's, maybe a bit more.

            Are you running a stock converter? I would run probably a 2800-3500 stall depending on how aggressive you want to be.

              I have a 3300 stall Edge Racing converter.......as for my boost...i have to get a better wastegate spring.....it only allows me 9-10psi.....ive even pulled the vacuum line off and it just goes to 9-10psi.

              My turbine wheel is too small which is slowing me down topend.....right now I have the Standard T3 turbine wheel which me and many other say is choking topend....im going with the Stage 3 turbonetics wheel real soon.

                15PSI on an ET Street.. noooo, thats hella low for a drag radial, 17 PSI is fine

                        ET streets are not drag radials. They are a wrinkle-wall street legal slick (they have a couple pathetic excuses for treadlines in them and the walls are a bit stiffer than regular wrinkle-wall tires, making them street legal. I wouldn't run a ET street at any more than 16psi unless you're having bogging issues.
