Any tips for some better E.T's? (videos)

yea it has stock gearing. my suspension mods are just a set of H&R SS springs and i know those arent helping me. I think im going to go back to stock springs. Why are you not a fan of the dry hop? also im having a hard time trying to slip the clutch i have been just dumping it. Im getting 4:10's my next time out to the track will that compensate for the traction im getting with the mickey thompsons?

I bet 4.10s will get that 60' down under 2.0 pretty quickly. Mishri and I both ditched a good .3 off our 60' and we believed most of that was from upgrading the gears. 60' under 2.0 are possible with the stock gears and even w/stock tires on there but it takes uber skill.

Is the car tuned or do you just have an intake and that's it?

Its untuned and way lean. i dyno'd it when it was stock and the A/F was spot on. as soon as i put the intake on it went way lean. i dyno'd it with all my current upgrades and its still lean at about 15:1 and thats with the Diablo Predator maxed out. Im thinking of getting a mail order tune.

Gears should help a lot. I wouldn't blame the tires but those 3.27's sure aren't helping. And it looks like you need to work on your reaction time

R/T had nothing to do with poor ET's, unless he's running a class. I'm sure you knew that thought big five ohhh.
