It's easy to get caught up in the excitement and run off back to the pits after your hook. But, when you get unhooked, pull ahead a little bit and check out the holes your tires left. This is a good indication of tire pressure. Ideally the hole will be flat. If there is too much pressure they will dish. If not enough, the hole from the tread will cup and the dirt will be higher in the middle. With stock classes, every little bit helps. Some of my tires run a pound of pressure difference from one side to the other just to get my tracks even.

I would recommend ,first that you are a straight
(A) student in school.
Then I would recommend that, you are playing (1)-(2) high school sports !

Last but not least, start planning your career !

I have a 15 yr old daughter, this is the plan !

Good Idea but I don't think that'll help ya pull any better. I'm 19 and the best advise is watch everyone, see what some are doing and what others are not and most of all just have fun. You'll learn from losing, just remember what u did wrong and don't do it again and did I mention have fun

HERE...HERE... HAVING FUN IS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT! WINNING IS FUN BUT LIKE SAID ABOVE YOU WILL LEARN SOMETHING EVERY TIME YOU PULL WIN LOSE OR DRAW. MAKE YOUR RIDE LOOK GOOD TOO. DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. WHAT DO YOU INTEND TO PULL? WHAT CLASSES? WHERE?
