Getting better !!! :)

I cut another 3 tenths off of my quarter. This time I ran a 13.44 @ 104mph. My 60 foots still suck as I havent figured out how to get it to hook , if I even can. Just wanted to let you guys know im getting better , starting to think there may be nothing wrong with the car and something with the driver lol. My best 60ft this time out was 1.97 which is worse than last times 1.95 . I just cant get it to hook . Im starting to think drag radials. Ive got even more time I can cut out just need to keep working on my launch . I know this car can do better. Wish me luck , i might hit the local 1/8th this fri and work on 60fts . This thread is for all those guys who helped me before when I kept thinkin something was horribly wrong with my car.

It's an auto... not really much to learn, just try differnt techniques and see which one will give you the best 60ft....

Also, with a stall that big on street tires, I wouldn't think you'd have much traction anyways.

Thats the problem , I dont have any traction , my stall and gears so far have knocked a best of half a tenth off my 60ft . Im gonna go to the local place tonight and keep workin on my 60 , I havent gotten a "good" launch with it yet. I might not be able too without drag radials.
