drop the psi and heat up the slicks. play with the control arm's adjustment also.

"275/40/17 slicks" ??? Exactly what kind of slicks are you running? ![[Confused]](confused.gif)

Could only one wheel be spinning?
btw- 20 psi in a true slick is almost unheard of.... of course you know this because you've raced on slicks before ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
