your 60' times depend on how good your launch is... I can cut 1.8's on drag radials with stock gears. I pulled a 1.5 in my old bosses 89 notch on MT et streets (bias ply) and 4.10's

right i no its all in the start/launch. but last night i had a couple damn near perfect starts, and on drag radials could only get a 2.1 outa it... which sucks. on street tires 2.4.... wtf... all stock suspension, car just has exhaust... should it be quicker outa the hole then that?

you should definitly be faster out of the hole. but your also still on stock gears, which makes launching harder.

My friend Mike put his 94 GT to a 1.9s 60' on street tires

thats what i thought too... but how? lol, i mean, DRs are at 15/16 psi, heating them up, and launching relativly decent, ive only ran them one night, id either get a LITTLE bog, or a LITTLE spin(which suprised me)... i had 2 runs that didnt bog or spin, and chirped 2nd, and the one was an 1/8 run, which was

60-2.170
330-6.017
1/8-9.230
mph-76.22

and then a 1/4

60-2.172
330-5.975
1/8-9.196
mph-75.95
1000-11.970
1/4-14.297
mph-97.17

yea id love to heat them in 2nd, but my clutch says "**** you Adam" and just burns up the clutch, atleast it does on street tires, so i didnt even try w. them... ill try that next time, but i think itll just slip.

well your clutch is more then likely whats holding you back... are you sure the tires are even spinning, and not the clutch?
