hey guys. Well i thought 2night would have been the night to break out of the 15s and go high 14s. WRONG! i dont know what else to do. I mean everything is looking good for the times.

Here is the best of the night:

Pass 1
ET 1/4: 15.0574
R/T: .728
Trap: 84.26
60 ft: 2.4

The track is known to be "uphill." It looked very possible to reach the 14s but then ever run after that went up.

Here are the rest of the runs:

Pass 2
ET 1/4: 15.17
R/T: .425 ( i know, lol the TT supra next to me intimidated me, i needed a jump!)
Trap: 90.6
60 ft: 2.1

Pass 3
ET 1/4: 15.22
R/T: .523
Trap: 92.1
60 ft: 2.24

Pass 4
ET 1/4: 15.38
R/T: .617
Trap: 92.08
60 ft: 2.32

i really want to hit the 14s. Everyone laughs at me when i say i can hit the 14s. I dont know what im doing wrong. Like in pass 3, i had an almost perfect r/t, my 60 was prety good, trap was good, but the ET just sucks *****. Im shifting right b4 redline.

Can anyone help me?

 

R/T does not affect ET at all. Mod list?

 

frankencar intake, warpy y pipe, stock sawblades, agxs on 4 up front, sts? thats about it.

 

shift points:
1-2 6500
2-3 6300-6400
3-4 6100-6200

try that and with a good 60' you'll be in the 14's. or you can just let me drive the car.

 

You must have gone to 75-80. That track sucks. Why not get over to a better track that isn't on an uphill slope?

Motorweek uses that track for testing if anyone didn't know this.

 

bc none of my friends want to go anywhere else. I want to go 2 Mason Dixon right up the road but no1 wants to go with me. How do i improve my 60'?

 

lol come on up!

 

You may as well go on your own. It's a waste of money for guys like us to go to sucky tracks, especially an uphill track.

You have to be aggressive as hell when jumping off the line. Torque brake and floor it when its time to go.

 

when? I'll bring my slicks too.

shoot me an IM next time you're on AIM. my screen name is the same as my .org name.

 

would it be alright to launch on slicks? i have a SPEC stage 1 clutch. Seems to be hold up very well. You seem to have a lot of experience with the 1/4 mile. Would you recommend getting some light weight wheels and new tires? ive been using some crapy tires on the stock sawblades. It barely gets traction. It will spin through first with me feathering out the clutch. I even dropped the pressure in the tires.
