added a little timing Only ran once last night. First I was caught in traffic, then it was busy at the track and then it rained. It was around 72 degrees.
Timing was set at 28 degrees. I run 93 octane. I didn't bog too much. I'm in the right lane.

Your car books man. I heard about the commotion at the track yesterday.
Hopefully next Friday we get some nice weather. I plan on running.
What size tire do you have again?

OP-The MPH shows its engine near perfect, that 60" could use a little help, maybe some suspension mods/tweaks..can you give us some of your racing technique?, launch, shift points, power shifting etc? I think thats a consistent 10 second ride you have there.

Pretty basic stuff. BMR stock type torque arm but attached to a BMR transmission brace. Global West subframe connectors, BMR tubular lower control arms, panhard rod ( I needed the clearance for the exhaust), stock type shocks. I removed the front sway bar for better weight transfer.
I launch maybe around 3,000-3,500 with a bit of slipping the clutch. Mostly bog. I run a spec 3+ clutch. I pretty much such at launching. Like most 6 speeds, you either bog or spin most of the time.
I have a shift light (which is great since my eyes aren't good enough to watch the tach) which is set at 6,600. I shift pretty well in the rest of the gears. I lift 100% on the throttle on all my shifts. My best run was 10.55 at 133.3 with 1.59 60 foot. It was best every where (time & mph)
The better the launch, the better my mph.
