Good luck mark I hope the weather holds up.And you don't need your rego papers.Have you got some semi slicks or are you running with your stock tyre's or the one's on your profile?If you are running the stock tyre's you will not only find it hard to get traction but you will skate at 3/4 track use semi slicks or your good tyre's and I recon you should come close to what you want.If the weather is bad I'm keen to come along next week(not to run just to be pit crew)
Regarding traction, drop your rear tyre pressures to 22 psi or so if you're spinning the wheels. - This helps quite a bit. The track doesn't always offer better traction than the street, but with a wee burnout and lower pressures, you'll be as good as you're going to be.
I got the DVD in the mail today Jeff. Thanks very much mate!
