First time at the track. Shoot me some advice. For starters I know the tire pressure should’ve been lower and the AC should’ve been off. I did bog a little because my launching RPMs were too low.

Do a quick clutch slip when launching at around 4-4500 rpms.
Get some bias plys for best times or at the very least a set of radials.
That’s a little confusing because I hear some people say drop it at 4-45000rpms and others say slip the clutch. Regardless, I never had the chance to try higher rpms because the second I would stop at the start line the Christmas tree would start lighting up. Never had enough time to hold up rpms and get the clutch pedal where I wanted (I have a high engaging clutch).
A 1.7x 60' would get ya to around 12.2.
Generally for every tenth you knock off your 60' you will knock two tenths off your e.t
Yea it was a good 63 degrees. Not much traction all. I tried launching at 2 then 3k rpms and spun 1st and 2nd gear both times. This timeslip was a launch from idle with a little bogging.
2 tenths? Ive been seeing a tenth for a tenth 60ft to ET.
It's one tenth in the 60' is two tenths in et. Here are two slips from years ago. Same day.
slip 1:......... slip 2:
60' 2.19...... 60' 1.75
E.t 13.14...... E.t 12.39
60' 2.19 - 1.75 = .44 drop in 60'
times that by 2 for what I should gain in E.t
.44 x 2 = .88
E.t 13.14 - 12.39 = .75 gain by dropping my 60' .44
