Pretty good deal I guess.

12.90 is all I got with a 2.28 sixty so I'm sure she has 12.5 in her with a good driver.

Was that tonight? That 60 time is horrible, you should easily be able to get close to 12.5!

Silver2SSRS6spd · 05-04-2011, 10:35 PM

Ok guys, post them time slips when you get home!

DarkObsession · 05-04-2011, 11:39 PM

I'm sure I'll have a 60 foot time of 3.0 :( Silver, do you have any tips for launching a manual? I've been down the track hundreds of times but always in an auto and I'm worried about how to launch the 6 speed. Everything I've read on the forums seem sort of ambiguous to me :(

If you are running stock tires, do not go through the water box and do a burnout. Go around it and run on cold tires. The PZeros get greasier the hotter they get. Turn off the traction control. Then launch at around 2500 rpms or so. Gradually let out the clutch as you step on the gas, this will help you hook up. Don't just drop the clutch, as this will just make you either light up the tires or bog down, depending on how high the rpms are when you drop the clutch. I was able to get 1.9 60' times doing this. But once you have spun the tires a bunch and heated them up, then it will only get worse after that. That's why it is important to not spin the tires.
I hope this helps, good luck!

Bad new!!!!! Josh blew up and is currently being towed home... and yes I had a 2.6 60' and ran a 12.90. Horrible I know!!!!

I was there. Feel bad for that guy, thats a long way home!

Here's my slips, I was car 112. Can someone explain why on the 1st round I won? The other guy ran closer to his dial in so is this where RT comes in?

Jason7 · 05-05-2011, 12:40 AM
