question about tpms

Ok i was at the drag strip today, i had let some air out of my tires, about 8 pounds or so i think. and ran a few times with no issues. then on a run where i had a pretty hard launch and a slight spin that caught hard at launch i noticed the tire pressure monitor light was on. i have put the tires back above 30psi but the light is still on, i am going to go put in the required air in the morning but is there a chance i broke one of the monitors due to the tire spin and quick grab at launch?

Possibly, they are held on with a thin metal band. Lowering the air pressure 8psi should of set it off anyway. You might be able to reset it using a x-cal tuner if you have one.

well magically the light has gone out???? but now i have a bigger issue, i have a squeak coming from the front of the car, it is when i turnthe steering wheel, it isn't very loud but just enough to hear it, so on my way to the dealer in the mornign for them to check it out. it also makes a noise when you go over a large size bump, just a slight squeak. so hopefully nothing major but i made a comment to someone when asking about how there mustang rides on the highway and that i seemed to notice mine was a bit more floaty recently so i may have a fairly big issue going on with the front end, i hope nope so keeping my firngers crossed for the morning, 7:30 am!

could be anything, but my squeek in the front came from the right lower control arm bushing.

Don't worry so much, I beat the crap out of my car and it has never given me any trouble.

You have other posts, and your lack of ET improvement could be your duals reducing back pressure to much and actually costing you HP, but I would bet it's the tune.
