The first time I took my GT500 to the track on street tires I pulled 1 9.20@85 with a 2.67(oops!) 60ft on the time trial and a 8.60 (Blistered the tires!) at 85 with a 2.26 60 ft.And I let offf because with one time trial and racing the track bracket champ,I figured with my 9.0 dial in I was reeling him in pretty damn quick!So Had I not let off who knows.LOOK HOW MUCH THE 60 FT HELPED ME.
Firts time down the eigth with the 500 and there is a lot of power to modulate ccoming out of the hole and it's a 6 speed and I NEED PRACTICE.LOL!
I'm not so sure about your trap though it should be at least 100+.
Work on them 60's while you are trying to figure out your trap problem because with more power will come more 60 ft issues.

The very low trap speed, to me, is just an indicator of the driving. I would have been very worried if I would have trapped at 102 mph and still had an ET of 14.7 with a 2.2x 60.

the low trap speed doesnt mean your car is broke, or just an out of the ordinary turd...it just means the driving is bad the whole length of the track and not just the 60 foot.
Not trying to dog you, just speaking the truth.
I was running terrible 60 foots, terrible 330s and mediocre 660s and the MPH SHOWED it bad.
Getcha some ET Streets and hold on.

LOL...I have said throughout this whole thread, even in my first post, that my driving was the biggest problem.

have to ask brah, did you turn off your tcs? if not the car is going to fall on its face when it starts spinning. I know this from my first time at the track. how much tire pressure? do you have a rhinocerous in the trunk?
