Where has my 60ft gone?? Well full suspension has been added to the car and now can 60 worth a crap. When I had complete stock suspension, i cut constant 1.51 60fts at a heavier raceweight and less HP and TQ. Now I have all suspension and more pwr and cant get below a 1.57 60ft. Here is what i have suspension wise:
BMR upper and lower A arms
BMR K member
BMR Boxed lower control arms
BMR subframe connectors
BMR Extreme Drag Bar
QA1 F series shocks all around with 300lb springs upfront (fronts +3 rears +7)
UMI Adj. Torque Arm (chassis mounted ) set at -2 pinion angle
UMI Torque Arm Relocation kit
Im running 28x10x15S ET drags now compared to the 28" ET street I had back then but dont thing that has anything to do with it. Car feels like its dead hooking and leaving straight I know it dont help without video but here is a couple of pics of it launching. The only thing i can think of that might be hurting the 60 is im not sure how the dragbar is suppose to be set up, but like i said it leaves straight. Only other thing I think it might be is shock settings.
because ive tried moving the pinion angle from -1 all the way to -4 with no affect on the 60ft.
