10psi for tyres i think gaf, should be fine as long as he can get some heat into them in the burnout.

10psi - no way. Sounds way too low to me. I would have thought more like 20psi.

Well done to Josh regardless - good effort and highly commendable.

Cheers,

Yeah, thinking about it, I didnt think it would go down to 10psi with the setup Josh has (thought 12psi was minimum) but maybe not ... or was it 8psi minimum -

Dunno, ill keep guessing until he lets us know :) lol

Congrats to Josh on a good time (hardly a Mini though :P). I helped a guy a few months back setting tyre pressures, he then did a PB of 12.29 - what motor?? a 2L NA Honda Civic :shock:

Drag slicks are 10psi, mainly for the wrinkle wall effect. I doubt radials would use the same pressures nor have the same effect.
