I am using them, and the best 60' I can get out of those things are a 1.7, I still have my quad shock on, can that be hurting in any way? If you are cutting a better 60' please let me know, and what your suspensions set up is. thanks.

I think it might be the track and the lack of rubber laid down. It is a fairly new track. I guess I need to try sticking with burn out a little longer.

It would consistently be in the 1.6's at Sac (not Wed. nights). Check out MT's site on burnout recommendations. I followed them and the launches were more consistent. 26x10.5's.

Did you remove your quad shock?

under the tech section? All it says is hard burnout 1st, and then not too hard on the following. I think might have taken too much Air pressure out of the tires. I'll start with 14 and work my way down, and see what is the best.
