Hi guys,I'm looking to take my GN to the track this spring, but have a traction query.
On my street tires if I try to build boost on the footbrake, the rear wheels overpower the brake long before I get into boost.At the track I will have MT Drag radials on the rear. Do you think the extra traction will enable me to build boost for the launch?
Stock breaks.

Yes, and the sticky track will also help.

I thought I was doomed with this problem as well.

DON'T TEST ON CONCRETE....even worse!!!!
 
holding at the line

I found that installing the s-10 brake cylinders and the Kirban sticky rear brake shoes helps a whole lot, no problem building 8 lbs boost. You have to hold the foot brake 'til your face turns red like this :mad:.
