ET Time
I went to the track today. I don't understand why my car is running so slowly. I have LT Headers, no casts, exhaust, intake, PTB, tune, 160 stat, and drag radials. I'm only running 13.3's and sometimes 13.1's...they had basically a stock camaro out there with only an intake and exhaust running almost as fast as me. I'm not sure what the problem is, with all that it seems like I'd be running at least 12.6's. Not sure what's going on?

@Bigdame, based on your profile you are auto.
Post a whole slip, which drag radials, and whether you have any weight reduction. 20's up front and back? I went 12.3@112 with long tubes, cats, stock exhaust, PTP, UDP, Tune, cold air, stock stat, 20" 555DR's on back and heavier 20x9's up front. Best 60 of 1.85.

First picture is the slip from today with my best 60'. The second picture is the slip from my fastest time and also my second fastest 60'. I just so happened to run my fastest time in the finals, broke out and came in second.

My 12.37 slip to show you were your numbers are off (like your 1/8 mph is very low):

There's no way in the world that car cut a 1.60 60'. That slip is incorrect.

What drag radials and what air pressure in the tires? Was the car properly tuned? Are you sure you're staying in it past through the full 1/4 mile?I've seen plenty of people get to the boards and let out. We need a lot more information about your setup, and your experience drag racing. |

Yeah that 1.6 is a fluke that slip would make sense if you were 1989 Mustang GT 5 speed launching on slicks.

The numbers from the 60ft to the 1000ft are all wrong the only number that might be right is the 1/4 mile and mph.

Go to the track with the FMS guys and I'm sure they can tune you to a low 12.
