New Track Numbers

Well, I had gone to the track three weeks ago and only bested a 12.80 @ 111.# w/2.0 60'. Since then I only played with the A/F and had much better track conditions. My best run was the following:

60' - 2.074
1/8 - 8.231
mph - 90.12
1/4 - 12.583
mph - 114.10

Best 1/8mph was 90.47mph and best 1/4mph was 114.40. I think with better traction 1.8-1.9 I should easily see 12.3-12.3's.

You seem to be lacking something....TRACTION!...LOL
Try a set of ET Streets. With ET Streets, and a completely stock suspension mine pulls high 1.6 60 ft. times. My best has been a 1.67.

Well, The first 3 runs I launched @ 1500-1800rpm w/ tires @ 20psi. I actually bogged thats how well the track was hooking. I then launched @ 2200rpm and spun the crap out of the tires. Next time I will launch @ 2k with 18psi and play a little more. I only made 4 runs.

good times.

get the 60 ft down to a 1.6 and it will fly. Might need a 12 bolt after a few of those launches though. Some rear ends live and some don't. The 6 speed makes it a little tougher to leave good and increases the chance of rear end problems as well.
