Well I ran my personal best, 15.0 I hope my car can do better. I have yet to get it into the 14s. I'm gettin much better at launching and shifting but I still need some work on my technique. My trap speeds were all around 92 MPH, even on my slowest run (and first) of 15.9 with massive wheel spin off the line. I found that launching the car was best at 5,000 RPM using the clutch to control wheelspin/wheel hop. My reaction times were not bad, from between .503 to .8xx. 60 ft time was a 2.3 on my "best" run. I'm also draggin my 2 15" woofers, spare, and full interior with me as well. I have a cattman Y, and a cone intake. Just for kicks maybe I'll remove the exhaust altogether just to get it into the 14s :-)
I also have the stock suspension (except sway and strut bars) so a stiffer suspension would also help traction.
Also, another thing is before my car would never chirp 2nd gear, but now it grabs second like crazy. Is it possible the clutch got glazed, and from my hard launches it cleaned itself off?

Good runs. I had my best night last night too. But, I only got 15.8. Anyway. Take out the stereo. Just that got my .25 seconds on every run...
