first time at the track=12.88
I took my car to the track for the first time, I was expecting better times but I need to get my 60' time down first. I had et streets running at 18psi and the best 60' time was in the 1.9's.
I brake stalled the car right around 3000 rpms for this run which seemed to be a good spot, it pretty much dead hooked. The next run I tried brake stalling it to 3600 and it spun the first 60 foot, it was still a 12 second run and my highest trap speed of the night so maybe I needed to let a little more air out of the tires. What do I need to do to get a 1.7 60' time?
Anyway here is my best run last night
reaction time.........090
60".....................1.94
330....................5.437
1/8....................8.313
mph...................85.51
1000'.................10.791
1/4....................12.882
mph...................107.89

Maybe try to launch at a few different rpms. Some converters like to be stalled up, and sometimes you do better at a lower rpm and it flashes the converter harder. If you are dead hooking, try a lower footbrake rpm and see if the converter flashes higher and maybe it will 60ft a little better?
