Hey guys i am really against the wall here, i can't seem to get good 60 ft and my times is suffering because of that i mean i'm doing 15.3@93-94mph with 2.6-7 60ft :(

I really can't get them down so i need help.

Here's a little info on the car:
Continental almost gone tires up front, tokicos illuminas set a 5(stiff) and is a FWD w/ a 14b @15psi

My questions are:

How should i launch? Step by step please
What actually are the 60ft and how do i improve them??

Thanks
 
First get some new tires.

Then set your shocks at full soft up front and full hard out back.

Try launching around 3500 and slip the clutch don't just drop it.

And to your questions what actually is a 60ft time...It's how long it takes your car to move the first 60' down the track and the only way to improve it is to keep practicing :thumb:
 
i'm spinning the tires and don't get traction like the car stumbles

I have only tokico in the front :(

so softer is better?
