maybe thats the problem then, maybe im not getting them hot enough. cuz like they stick, dont get me wrong, but i couldnt really launch from above 2500.... and ive constantly heard of launching on DRs at 3k, 4k... and having to worry about an axle, lol i saw nothing last night that made me even think my axle's were hurtin.... so maybe there just not hot enough???

ORIGINAL: AdderMk2

well your clutch is more then likely whats holding you back... are you sure the tires are even spinning, and not the clutch?
yes i no its the tires not the clutch, you know as well as i do that you can feel the differance. and on top of that i had a few friends w. me, and they said they were both spinin.

as for the clutch, its actually not too too bad, only time it slips is if i dump it in 2nd... no other time(used to be worse, adj the pedal, and well its working fine, still wanna upgrade to that spec stage2 tho, but thatll be durin summer)

The best I have cut to date is a 1.69 w/ 3.73 and et streets. And thats on the hose as well. On the motor only I am getting a 1.912 and that was last weekend. I ran a 8.86 that pass on motor only.


Edit: According to my sig the best was a 1.69 60ft.

see you have 3.73s, so instances like this make me think that a 2.2/2.0 on DRs is kinda good for my stock car(exhaust only) w a 3.08 rear... but ****, i dunno
