Well I went up this weekend and ran a 9.44 @ 147. Thought everything was going great and with a 1.60 60 foot time I knew things could only get better. A few passes later and the Mickey tire just completely failed. I was down to 10 psi and could not get it to hook. I really just want to get this bike consistent and the Mickey just seems like a light switch- it works great and then all of a sudden goes to nothing. Is the shinko a more consistent tire? Also- I have a 2-step that I just crest to try to get my launches right. I leave at 5000 and try to get on it as fast as I can. I am 9 inches back and I have had the shock redone- new spring and valving. Any good tips on dropping the 60' times?
