Thanks! I should be in the high 10's low 11's and just can't get there with the high temps and bad prep. Best so far is 11.701. Hitting 125.75 last weekend was encouraging, but never ran faster than 12.03.

I'm waiting for everything to finally come together.

Give me a call and I will give you a few tips...I cut 1.7x sixty s with my 295 25 22s@ 50 lbs of air pressure. You must have a proper alignment to 60 with IRS...call anytime

I have had some luck at about 4800-5000 rpm. Just roll in to the 1st light stop get the RPMs up lightly using the clutch bump your way up to the 2nt light. The key is using the stored energy in the motor and flywheel. Just keep your right foot right where it is for about 1 sec as you are letting the clutch out then ROLL the gas to the floor do not slam it down. Trying not to let the RPMs drop lower then 2k , if they do eather roll on the gas faster or slip the clutch a bit more. Guarantee you will cut a few 1.8x's and this way is a bit forgiving if the track is a little off or in my case I'm a little off lol.

Well I hit a 12.9 @ 112 with a 2.153 60ft. What do y'all think I should run with a 1.8 60ft

Thanks for the offer! I'll likely be doing that. PM me your # if you would.

I can't imagine you would take off less than .5 if you dropped that much off your 60'. It's f'n hard to get all the stuff to work together with an M6 to get that perfect pass. Makes it fun and frustrating as hell though. lol

My est without knowing your mods....12.4-5s if you get everything else right

[camarosspower]

I have kooks 1 7/8 Lt headers k&n intake bo whites tb ted tuned. Suspension wise 1" BMR lowered BMR sways and trailing arms with 315 invos in the back

Idk if this will help or not but I get her right to about 28-2900 rpm, don't dump though, act like your gonna take off from a stop light sorta fast. Let it out quick but don't dump, keep on the gas and last time I did that it was a perfect launch.

[SilversharkSS]

Past 3200 I just soon, below 2500 bog, its right in between with the right clutch work you can do an awesome launch, practice makes perfect. You have to catch it right as you let out

[joeybsyc]

Are you guys letting any air out of your stock Pirellis to get those 60 ft times? If so, how much?

[Merc]

I launch at 4800 on a 2-step with slicks. Consistent 1.63 sixty foots.

I also just recently added 3.91's with the true trac. I'll be going to the track next weekend hopefully I'll be at least in the mid 12's

I know everyone says to take off all nannies but What if you left nannies on and launched at 2500? you wouldn't spin and probably wouldn't bog either? I am just saying because I think I will ruin my clutch before I get enough practice runs to get even a 1.9 60ft

Getting the car to launch with tc and st still on is a giant pain in the ass. I forgot to turn them off and it wasn't pretty. I think I had a 2.2 60' and a mid 12 second pass with 600+ rwhp. Not something I want repeated.
