Default Visited the track this past weekend...

And I ran slower than I did before I did my head/cam swap! I was very disappointed. This was at an 1/8th track, before the best I ran was 10.07, then this weekend I couldn't do better than a 10.16. My problem was traction I figured because my 60s were about .4 slower, which I was spinning more but I figured that I could have picked up a little more the rest of the track. So now I'm looking for a set of DR's or slicks. Just wondering what size wheel and tire eveyone is runnin? And would this solve my problem?

8s were what I was hoping to be able to reach, at first I thought I might be expecting to much. I didn't have any 60s under 2.5s this last visit.

I don't know about 8's with a EC. My best in this summer heat has been only 8.5 with ET streets, with a 1.8 60'
