Default NEW TRACK TIMES!!! Half way respectable too!

So I took the car up for a rental day at the track. Ran some decent times. I still have to work on my launch however.

Im still running the Summit lower control arms, which will get sapped out soon for some UMI lift bars. I'm also going to be running Hoosier Quick-Time Pro tires on some 15's. These times were on my Nitto's with 35PSI (i forgot to deflate them a bit)

60' - 2.13 (boo!)
1/8 - 8.22
mph - 94
1/4 - 12.42
mph 113


with a better launch, drop my 60' to about a 1.6 or 1.7, i should see high 11's. I'm still having a problem with second gear in my 3550, its getting torn apart this winter and having some faceplating done.

SLOW AS ***** ADDER :P But seriously, great times, especially for that weenie 60ft. But, I would have expected your car to trap higher than 113, especially after that 94mph 1/8th.

Okay, I see now. I know when I ran a 2.2 60ft, I ran a 8.29 1/8th. Then a month later I somehow managed a 1.84 60ft(on balder than bald Nittos) which ended up being my crappy 7.57. So yeah, you should easily run a mid 11 second pass with a better 60ft. Nonetheless good times. Are you tuning it with a Tweecer?

How much does your car weigh and which gears are you running?

im pretty sure my 1-2 shift is IN the 60'... because my car comes off the line pretty good. Im still having issues with my clutch... I think there is something screwed up inside the bellhousing, when I step on the clutch, I get a "click" noise that I have tracked to the clutch fork.. so IDK what the deal is with that. Ill have to pull the trans and figure it out..
