I think I am going to Joliet later this year to see if it doesn't do a little better there.

My buddy is working on the vid, will post it here when get it.
well IMO, gotta watch the speedo you need 50-55 mph for 3-4 seconds to get them nice and stickey

the ultralites are hurting you, a lowered car doesnt transfer weight as well and hurts your 60s

gotta launch it harder IMHO

You have to slip the clutch and feather the gas.
Or let the car roll out a little @ idle then punch it.
And it just gets harder to 60' when you get a grabby clutch like the DFX or Spec stage 3
with 18" Drag radials.
really...... and how many cars with that set up have your run down the track??

18" M&Hs - pulling 1.5 -1.6 60s


265/40/18 MTs pulling 1.68-1.79 60s


my vert has Spec 3+ and 18 DRs - dump the clutch at 4700.....

You can never have too much power, just not enough traction.
