HOW TO LAUNCH?!
ORIGINAL: USMCrebel
your a dumb *** there was hardly any spin, and if you think you can pull a 2.08 on 245's 400 tread wear at 39psi be my guest
BTW it was 74* here today, and the track temp was about 80-85.

Such a good launch all you hear is tire spin through first. That was kind of FTL. Try slipping it more.

I do apologize I watched the video again and I swear I heard more tire spin before lol. Still 2.1 60' is meh. Your trap is pretty decent though you just need some drag radials and mid-low 8s is definitely close

Pulled a 2.0 flat(not the best driver by far either) on 275s on a track that I guarantee you is crappier than the one you ran at with about the same weather.

i ran a 12.4 in the 1/8 i spun through first, second, and said screw it and put it in 4th and cruised down. but i did put an asshurting on a TA the sound is messed up, so thats sucks.i would love to get some DR's, but with a baby on the way, and an IRON MAN project underway i'd rather be the fastest bone stock mach one, granted im an ok driver, 100x's better on the street
Another thing, they made me run a pro tree with a built tubro car..........I HATE PROTREE!

1800 probably. I was just fuggering with ya. It's an automatic. Stall it up as high as it will go, and it goes 1.9X every time.

Damn, you guys are getting some great times with such high tire pressures. Were ALL of them with street tires? What about a drag radial, would those be better off with the lower tire pressures?

yeah all my times are on the street tires from ford, DR are better off with lower tire pressure ~15-18 is the common setting here. next month im going to a better preped track hopefully with GeneK
