At the strip we have no way to heat the tires up
Yeah, that is also why Scott and his crew at ATCO in October were able to get such good ET's and 60 ft times. There were only 20 of them and they were doing back to back to backs which keeps the tires hot. There are tire warmers you can buy. Enzom bought some.

None of us actually used tire warmers. But what we did was turn off the traction control and do crazy burnouts prior to staging. And we dropped the air pressure to very low levels on our tires. That helped. And Atco is prepped incredibly well.

And yes we also did many back-to-back runs

Mark, Congrats on the 10.2sec 1/4! Ihave been waiting for my 10.26 to be beat.
Here is my garage tire situtation.
Anybody want a set of P zeros with 3K euro miles on them?

I never noticed that, and I raced there for 2 or so years.

Congrats on the record, op, crazy what a bolt ons and tuned 991T can do.

Good stuff Mark!

Karl, you'll have to get up to PBIR with the revised tune and see what she can do, maybe reclaim the crown!

Karl PM me price on the P Zeros. I may need them to get by if i can't get the MPSS in the next 4-6 weeks. My rears are getting close to needing to be changed. I am reaching out to tire rack to see when next batch of super sports come in.

Nice runs sir! It will be interesting to see if the myth about Sacramento trapping low in recent years holds true. We will get to find out on the 12th

Wheel spin while still cutting a 1.5 60 foot time. Technology is a wonderful thing.
