All the work is done by the 1/8th mile. The back 1/8th is only driving.

Ah ha, the truth comes out! j/k

I'm not sure if I've ever experienced negative DA, but with as many runs as I've done, it's possible. It has been cool at SGMP once or twice. I log everything but haven't been noting DA. I need to look up those numbers and add to my stats. Gotta get me one of those mini weather stations I see folks carrying around.

Your first couple of times going to the track, don't worry about working on your reaction time. Concentrate on driving. Try bringing up the convertor. This makes a world of difference.

If you go to dragtimes.com and go under tools, they have a DA calculator.

Never checked. I'm thinking 3500-4000 would be good?

Sounds good. Less wheel spin is better right?

Always better! But my car personally likes just the tiniest bit of wheel spin for some reason, but if it's a lot of wheel spin, then that's a no.

No. Never run with it on. I did that once by mistake and it costed me 5 tenths of a second. Made me go a 14.5 instead of a 14.0.

Lol. No secrets here. That kind of DA helps our little v6's.
