This is awesome! You have no idea how awesome this is! THANK YOU!!

Thanks! And you are welcome!

And yes, the Flex has surprised even some well seasoned drivers! LOL! I have had quite a few people come up and tell me they were LAUGHING AT ME until they seen me run... LOL!

-Drive around the water box.
-Decrease your rear tire PSI to around 22 or 23. Which means you'll need a way to raise it back up when you leave.
-Leave when you first see that last yellow light. If you wait for green it's too late.
-Speed shift faster. I usually don't even lift the throttle between shifts but that can be dangerous....especially if you were to miss a shift. Get an aftermarket shifter if you need.
-If you don't have trailing arms and/or some cradle bushings (or inserts) you should consider that for you next mod.
-I just recently put in a Ratpor shift light. I made it so I could easily hide it if needed and it's not permenately attached to anything. That'll help with keeping a more consistent RPM to leave at plus you get a shift light you don't have to look down at.

Drive around the water box with street tires, but then back into it, roll forward then do a real burn out. People may say otherwise but Pirellis stick a lot better when heated up.

This! You have to treat those Pirellis almost like a drag radial!

[marticus24]

All good info, keep it coming.

Wow, all that info sounds good. Tomorrow night in Sacramento calif. they are having a Camaro vs mustangs and I'm going to take my car out and see what she can do. Never done it and hope I can do what u did with a stock car

I personally have never had any luck trying this on the stock Pirellis. Anything more than a real quick dry clean off and my 60' increases. Even the very first time i ever tracked this car bone stock i was pulling 1.9 ~2.0 flat 60' bone dry just a quick clean off. Tried backing into water and a short burnout and got 2.1 ~ 2.25

In 7 passes that day my two worst were with water involved. I have never gone back to any water.

Results may vary..

Heres my 2 cents. #5217 yes thats a perfect light on 2nd pass. TREE'd the bitch!

Lower rear tires to 19-22psi, raise front a few clicks above normal...
DO NOT GO THRU THE WATER BOX on stock zeros....
Spin the tires till you see smoke and no more!
Pre stage first...Take a breath....stage.......
Leave when the 3rd yellow is at full bright, any longer your late...
12s are in your future!
