Reply to "tire pressure"

Which kind of track? For turn-both-ways race tracks, we used as high as 48 psi front/52 psi in the rears. This stiffens up the tire casing so precise control is possible, but on the road, it'll cause you to swap fillings in your teeth! I advise NOT dropping the pressure below mfgrs recommendations, since at low pressure, the tread actually goes concave, reducing surface area and drops traction while rapidly increasing wear. Please remember, while DeTomasos are beautiful, fast road cars, they do NOT make good drag-racers. For that, buy a junkyard Mustang and you'll drag faster with the same engine. Incidently, Corvettes and most other independent-rear-suspension sportscars don't drag well, either. Unless you alter the whole rear suspension, which then destroys their road-handling.
