Anyone here run at E-Town??

I'm have traction problems there. Its making me not want to mod my car. I ran 14.2 then added a nitto 555rs and a 3200 stall and ran 14.1. Whats the point.

Traction's always an issue there, even when I had 2.73's. Its better to go the week after the Super Nationals, there's enough rubber on the track to make it nice and sticky

I generally have had some sort of problem there. I think its simply because tehy attract sooooo many radial tire cars its just very hard for them to keep up on it. There have been several discussions about the traction problem at E-town... mostly on other boards but its not just you.

Now dont get me wrong, if its hookin, its hookin just as good as any other track around here. But in my experience, 4 out of 5 times there I have problems on the line.

I can honestly say I never cut better then a 2.0 60 on ANY of my runs ever there...to add to what project said, I believe its the volume of racers thats kills everyones launches...Now that my wife showed me where atco is, its not a bad hike...everyone I know runs better there
