I’m an experienced road course racer but have never done drag racing. Having a friendly run-off next week with my M5-S2 vs. a friend and his 1G (I think a 2007) Cadillac CTSV 6MT with some bolt ons (exhaust, tune).
Both cars very well maintained and in exceptional condition. I’m at 106k and I think he’s around 125k.
He has stock size tires (245 width all seasons) and I’m running oem staggered with 200TW Falken RT615K+. My friend has never dragged raced before either.
Any advice for a first timer? Burnout in the water box necessary? How much should I deflate rear tires?
Regardless I’m going to have fun but beating down a plasticized gramps corvette wannabe will make it that much sweeter
