:shock: dropping 6 psi gave you 3 tenths?? wow, guess you found the tires sweet spot.

as a general rule, what you pick up in the 60', double it and that's what you pick up in the 1/4, in your case roughtly .16 would have been picked up. Were you spinning in other gears too and dropping it stopped that as well?

yea i was spinning well into 2nd gear. but at 12psi the spinning was still evident just much more under control

Congrats Jim, When I saw my phone ringing last night my first thought was "Oh **** what happened" but then I started to wonder if you hit 12s. I think its time for some DRs and see what you can do with those!
