Message	Well before going to the track the other night we indexed the tires because we were concerned that they would slip on the rims. On the first pass they moved over an inch. So we increased the pressure to 42lb to see if they would hold, and they did not move as much on the next pass. But by the end of the night they had moved a total of 6 inches. Best time of the night was a 15.7 at 85 mph. Not too shabby for a fully dressed automatic Ford F350 crew cab PowerStroke diesel running 32lb boost. The only mods are a chip, TV/game system for the rear passengers and a 6" lift kit.
