With the nos, you should drop the pressure to around 9 or 10 psi.

I had the same 60ft problem. I don't know if my slicks are too big, wrong psi, wrong rpm, or maybe a combination of all. I just got my quaife in so hopefully that helps out.

Default 12 psi cold??????

I'm betting the slicks were at 14-15 psi after burnout, if not higher!!!!!

20x8x14, 12 psi warmed, 7800 rpm launch, spraying righ from the launch.

1.816 on SOHC.

With 22x8x13's I'd better cut a 1.77!

That is nearly identical to my slip hehehe

If I ran slicks, I'd be at 9 or 10 psi...

With good 60"s you'll probably drop back to 106mph which "should" get you 12.6ish
