yeah I have heard that but I was shocked at the difference between wed night last week and wed night tonight. A week ago the right lane was hooking harder and I talked to some of the regulars and they said the right lane was usually the one prepped if they do any prep at all. Now I could tell a difference that night between the left and right lane. But there was only about a tenth worth of difference in 60' left lane I was going 1.8s high 1.7s spinning and then the right lane I was going mid low 1.7s hooking and bogging.


Tonight it was just spinning and I wasnt having an issue heatin up the et streets. I could very easily see smoke and still stayed in it. So they were warmed up for sure. I meen even when I would warm up the et streets like that on the actual street I would still be able to spin them but ET streets even when they spin seem to be able to grip. Unlike a radial which seems to be more like an on off switch but at the track tonight even with the et streets it was like an on/off switch and it was off all night. I was spinning and getting NO where.

I was also launching based off how the track hooked last time. I bet I would have gotten better 60's if I hadent launched at all, just floored the gas.
