Get a 2.0 60' and you'll be in the 12's. If you're a stick, it's a matter of finding the optimum rpm to launch, but if you're on stock tires, you've got to walk the car out of the hole. Meaning, you've got to slip the clutch till you've picked up some momentum and then can fully release the clutch. The downside is expect to haze the clutch a little doing this.

his best run was a 13.2 with a 2.0 60ft... i agree with everything you say except the 60 ..... you need to be in the higher 1.8's 60ft to be in the 12's maybe low 1.9,s if everything goes right , m/t drag radials for sure and PRACTICE ! I was running high 1.8's on a street tire now im in the low 1.5's on a dr......dont beat yourself up it takes time with a m6 and you will break things along the way lol ...

Well, are you spinning out of the hole, if not, then launch a little higher. With an automatic you should be able to push it pretty hard out of the hole. You could also raise your shift points a little that should help.
