Went to the track this weekend. I was wondering what you guys do to get good 60 foot times? I was getting 1.78 and 1.76 all day long. I have a 28x11.5x16 et street and I am hooking pretty good. I would like to stay away from a t-brake. I leave of off the e-brake. The car went 11.80@116 mph. I think if I could get my 60's down to 1.6, it would put me in the 11.6 range. Would any suspension mods help? If so what kind? It is stock suspension.
THANKS Joe
part of the problem is the tire you have its 28" tall it kills your gearing even more i know i have to change my gears because i need to run the tall tire for the power my car dead hooked on the 28 tall tire with a 20psi t-brake launch and all i got was a 1.54 launch on a 10.4@129.97 passmy formula has same tire 3.73 gears and goes 1.49 60 ft with a 10.6@126 proper gearing helps get the weight moving you can do one of 2 things switch to bettergearing in the 3.50 range or go for a 26inch tire that will help get the 60 fts down if you leae with good boost
