Somewhat disappointed runs
Went to the 1/8 track last night right after work w/ a lil more than a ผ tank of 87 octane and a bunch of junk in the trunk.
1st run (launched off of idle and bogged)
2.06 60
5.64
7.99
8.52 @ 85.84
2nd run 3k launch
2.26 60
5.84
8.21
8.73 @ 85.84
Final run (not sure I think about a 2.5k launch and clutch started to slip on this run)
2.01 60
5.51
7.86
8.38 @ 86.34
Tires are 275/40/17 Riken Raptors. I cant figure out how people where running better times w/ less mph. What am I doing wrong? Or is it the car?
