Re: How are you 6 speed guys going 1.4x..... Run ET drags. Worth about a tenth over ET streets. I ran a 1.58 with ET streets and a 1.50 with ET Drags with a fairly conservative launch (5000rpm)
I bring the revs up to 5000-5500rpm and on the second yellow floor the gas while lifting the clutch at the exact same time.
Cheers,
Chris

Re: How are you 6 speed guys going 1.4x..... phil
i run a progressive controller, set it at 60-70 percent with a .5 sec build time, and with a 3000 launch at mir i got 1.51's pretty consistant on a 100 shot. i hope to see some 1.4's on a bigger shot and a more agressive launch.
hows the new motor coming? bruce was telling me all about it.

Re: How are you 6 speed guys going 1.4x..... My car with 4.11's out back and a 3550 lbs raceweight pulled a best 60' of a 1.63 on a 28" ET Drag w/ a 6K clutch drop.....
The next week I got the car down to 3400 lbs and put 4.56's in the car and got a string of high 1.4X 60's dropping the clutch anywhere from 6-6600 rpm. All of this N/A of course.......
The secret is weight, ALOT of gear, a HUGE tire, and ofcourse some big *****
