If you are chirping ET Streets in third gear, either you have a LOT more power than I do, you have a crappy track, or something is extremely wrong with your setup..... In my opinion.

Really, that's news to me...my 3 year old ET Streets recently had 1.49 60ft and grabbed hard enough to bog the motor some on a 10.37 pass that I lifted on.

Seem to work just fine for me.

I think that guys time and time again testing is flawed...

1.52 60ft on 2 year old et streets.

I heat mine but only for 2-3 seconds. Even at 20PSI, I was going 1.62. Dropping to 15PSI later only added consistancy. 28X11.5X15 ET Streets

With the spray I'm guessing 14PSI and a 5-7 good seconds of smoke will work best. 10bolt with Auburn Posi and Richmond 3.73's.
