Sweet, I have never raced mine on normal street tires, Im afraid of hitting the wall LOL. What are your plugs gaped at? Maybe your having spark blow out. Do you have an ignition box?

I was wondering the same thing.....
I even pulled out every plug when I got home and they seem to be burning nice, no carbon build up, not deteriorating, no oil residue, not black......

My plug gap is at .042" stock is .052"..... I dropped .010" thou thinking it should be good with 10 PSI, maybe not...
What are you running for a Gap? your at 16 PSI right?

I got thinking about dropping it to .035" but I figured that might be a little much...

Yes I have the MSD 6BTM, my BTM is set to approx 1.25 on the dial.

That is most likely the problem, I run mine @ .032"-.035". Tighten them up a tad and see what happens. I figured you had an MSD but wasnt sure, your spark should be good and strong then, just too much gap. I was at 16 with the V2 SQ but it got in a fight with a silicone coupler and lost, ( ya I was very F'in pleased about that) so now it has a V1 S trim on it. The boost should be the same though. (man is that thing loud)

P.S For god sakes man get some slicks.
