I'm thinking of going on the Friday 14th July to spend the day testing and setting up the cars traction control for drag tyres running low pressure. I will need to match the wheel diametres at about 120mph something I cant do on the open road, but unfortunatly dont have a laptop. Anybody fancy lending a hand? :thumbs:

if you spend the time matching them as close as damit @ 70 it will be very close at 120.. use the zoom function once you record a straight line run.. its easy that way

That would be good, but am out of time more or less now with only one weekend left. Buffy is giving me a hand to sort the car out this weekend (still an awful lot to do) will probably have a crack at the TC at some practise goes at TOTB. Hopefully can get something to work, it should not have to cut in to much if it is a dry day, if its wet there is less chance of 12s even with the huge tyres I aquired. Any TC tips would be handy though ;) ?
