Mine is a few hun quicker with the front end tied down. If it actually scrapes the rear on the ground and shifts in the air (did it twice at Memphis) it'll costs me a full tenth. If I can make it dead hook and keep the tires less than a foot off the ground it normally runs quickest. It's a very narrow window, however, between spinning the tires and doing that. I've gotten in trouble trying to run it that way. A little change in the track and it can easily blow the tires off next round. It's safer to let it get up a couple of feet. I run 10.5" wide Hoosier radials.
