Default went to the track for the last time this season...

k, went to the track....not too impressed w/ my times.... my slip reads:
R/T -.443
60 -2.666
330 -6.950
1/8 -10.418
MPH -72.63
1000 -13.335
1/4 -15.788
MPH -93.61

I know I need ALOT of work on my launch, I just spun the tires all the way through first, and 1/2 way through second, so right now i'm thinking LSD & slicks, or something. also, how is my r/t? what do you all take from the slip info?

get some 15 inch steelies with drag radials and watch those times drop. i bet your 2.666 60-ft time will fall to 2.1 or so. you'll be in the 14s easy.

I also think alot of it had to do w/ my suspension setup....I'm running adjustable springs w/ oem shocks, not giving me nearly enough damping, and still letting my wheels hop all over the place, even after installing my poly motor mounts.....so before next season, i'll be installing some KYB AGX's, and an LSD....that should help out alot. that & practice.

It depends what tree you are running, you must be running a 0.00 perfect tree (I normally run a .500 perfect tree.)

Either way, that was a hardcore redlight, as in you left way too soon.

That trap speed is good for a 15 flat.
