#140319 Tires not sticky enough to get a good Launch?

First do a Burn out to heat up your tires, If they are still not good enough? Poor out some Grape soda in front of both tires. Do a Burn out in the Grape soda and you will have much stickier tires.

I personally use Western Family Grape soda as its Cheap.

Enjoy Guys
Just a little trick I learned from an Old Drag Racer who Raced Muscle cars for years.

Who said anything about a Drag Strip?
:lol:
People have been racing on the Street long before Honda was even a company.

He Races at the strip now. However back in the day, Hell even now he does Runs on Public Road from time to time. Granted its not in Town, In the country there are many many roads with long straights in them that have been used for street racing many many times over the years.

#150886 you could so make this work at the strip ... hook up your windshield skirters on your frame infront of your tires than spray just before you burnout.. might work :lol:

#150893 thats a really good idea!!!
get a t fitting and some extra hoses and mount the squriters some way
and either pour the soda in the tank for the windsheild or just custom fab a cap where u just put the hose into the bottle and spray that ish :thumb:

Never tried coke, Western Family Grape soda is super cheap, So thats what I used. Try it out, I am sure you can get a cheaper soda then Coke to use. I mean its not like your tires will care if its not name brand.
