Default 13.57@107 ???

Is there something wrong here or is it just me. I am pulling a 2.4 60 time. good reaction and I dont misshift. GFB T/A Tires w/ no tread. Can I get more Speed w/ slicks or street slicks? Can I get more MPH w/ Diffirent tires... Tires are my porblem... my question what times is the 107 compatable w/..... Its pissin me off.

Yeah there is something wrong, your '60 is what wrong. 2.4 isnt good. you need to get that down around 1.7-1.6 then you'll be in 12's for sure.

I went 12.79 @ 107 on a 1.80 60'.....the 60 is killing you.....get some tires or learn to launch it better on street tires....I got down to a 2.0 60' on street tires (decent)....it just takes practice.....

I've gone 12.1 @ 110 with a 1.70 60' on slicks. Every 1/10th in the 60 is good for 2/10th in the 1/4. So, if you get your 60' down to 2.1 (which is not hard on a street tire with a stick) you would pick up 6 tenths in the 1/4 (if your currently at 2.4 60') and your ET would be around 12.9 to 13.0x.

I couldn't get better than 2.20 60ft. and 13.8@103mph before I got longtubes/dynotune. I felt like a ******* idiot, but it was 98 degrees and the track was 135 degrees sooooooooooooo whatever hahaha. I'm going back on a 50-60 degree day next time.
