nice baseline runs. I have the same slicks as you so those should be fine. You just need to use the boost by gear as stated and practice with the launch. The hardest part is staying in when you get wheel spin. As long as the car is still moving dont lift LOL.

Thanks Richard! The reason I have the same slick as you is because I copied what you had LOL. I will be back at the track this weekend everything seems to be fixed with the 2nd pump and I am heading in a minute to fill up with E-85 so all should be good:pray:

Well here is the update. Went back to the track today with boost turned up but that didn't help in fact it made things very slippery all the way down the track. I set the [email protected] psi this helped with the 60ft but that was about it I managed to pull A 1.8 60ft 1/4 11.2@139mph spinning spinning spinning but its all good changing the slicks soon bought these used and they sat for over a year under the house they may be old. Today was dodge hell cat day about 10 was at the track to be exact I whipped up on all of them except one he got me with traction LOL I ran faster but he was quicker by a millisecond. My car got big time props today from the announcer as "an amazing little street car that was very impressive last week" I will be changing slicks and fixing a broken shifter cable that was pointed out to me as the culprit of my hanging and missing 2nd gear all day long I will post a picture in the next post but again I had fun! Also some cockpit footage that I will post later. Enjoy the video again turn your volume up and hear her spin until she gets dizzy:p

Is your compressor surging? Or is that the wheel spin? Honestly... If your gonna keep dragging, you should head for thr awd swap

Your mph is killer but i was getting the same time with awd on streets also spinning on 1.9 60' You get the hook and youll be into the 9's for sure. No doubt.
 
Man that thing sounds so mean bro!!! ;) love it. gotta find more traction bro it's there! Airflow 76.9!!! :) nice I've pulled solid 1.7 60's in my gst. Just gotta get more seat time and more meat on the ground. You need new cables let me know you can have a set free! Pm me
 
Good to see you making more progress in a short amount of time.

That's a good improvement on your 60'

Its tire spin bro just tire spin;)
 
What if you skipped the water pit or didn't burn out on a hotlap? I swear i hear surge in 4th. Good job though man!
Well I don't know about what surge sounds like but I do know the car was spinning pretty badly. I am going to experiment with a different brand of slick.
 
You actually need to burn out alittle more! Gotta get the back to hold while you do it. I've got a built in lock for my e-brake button. So when I'm at the track I can lock the button down, and then I can freely pull up on my brake. And not have to worry about holding the button :). Helps a lot gotta get those tires hot and sticky. Also make sure our e-brake shoes are fresh in the back. Or else they won't hold you very well LOL. Do your burn out in 2nd!
