finally got 12's,,,,,,,,,,,,2nd time at track 6th pass,,but got it,if i had a better 60ft time i think i could go 12.7 or 12.8 my 60 ft best was a 2.015

 

Congratulations. Your 60' looks *wonderful* to me

Take a look at my 60' to see how bad it could be

 

i did'nt mention i was on DR"s,,,i think i should have a better 60,,,,,,,more like a 1.75-1.85 area???????????

 

Keep practicing your launch and fiddle around a little bit with tire pressure. Eventually you'll get that 60ft and ET down. Nice job anyway, wish I were in the 12's.

 

good job ! I second the suggestion for messing with tire pressure and launch techs...

 

W/ that trap you defintely have more in it, especially for a LT1...congrats

 

maddog,
First and foremost, welcome to the 12's. Just to give you an idea of the difference that 60's will do for you here is a little info of my last run (with old combination) so you can compare:

60: 1.964
330: 5.285
1/8: 8.053
MPH: 88.36
1000: 10.433
1/4: 12.425
MPH: 113.91

Again, welcome to the 12's and I agree with everyone else that once you get your 60' down a little bit you'll be knocking on low/mid 12's.

Take care,
Tim

 

60 2.015
330 5.50
1/8 8.27
mph 86.88
1000 10.844
1/4 12.909
mph 109.48
i've had a pass where i had a 60 of 1.88 but i screwed up the 3rd-4th shift,,it really pissed me off

 

and i've yet to hit a night where the temp is below 68,,,,also the relative humididty was 100 this night,,thats definately not helping me

 

welcome
i am finally there as well. i am told that with my mph i sohuld be a few tenths lower than what i got. however my 60' is a 1.9 AT BEST!
+that is on nittos!

 

Think rear suspension & as previously suggested, mess w/tire pressure. My car on BFG's when I had 'em liked about 14 in the right and about 17-18 in the left, with an airbag in the right rear spring. Had that pressure set @ about 20psi. Left pretty straight last year up north. May change my setup for this year. I seen no difference from boxed LCA's and adj. panhard, but that was just my slow *** POS, lol! Congrats!
