What should my trap speed be?
Ok first time to the track and I have never had the car on a dyno so I dont know the HP. My times were.
60ft---2.37
330ft---6.11
ET@594 ft--- 8.51
1/8 ET--- 9.04
1/8 MPH---- 84.1
1/4 ET--- 13.649
1/4 MPH--- 107.60
Well I could not hook for **** off the line (DUH LOL) and my 1-2 shift I spun really hard for at least a second and my 2-3 shifts I spun again but not near as bad, just enough to break the tires loose. I was on street tires at full weight. Say I put some MT drag radials and cut at least a 1.9 60 foot and not spin at all in my 1-2 or 2-3 shifts what should I trap. Car is a M6 with ls6 clutch in it and a formato tune other mods are in sig. Thanks

Your trap might increase slightly with a better 60' but it's your et that is really going to improve. You can count on around .2 off your et for every .1 off your 60'. So if you get the 1.9 you are saying you should be SOLIDLY in the 12's. The tires you're gettin should get you there
The trap speed could go down slightly (bog, pulling motor down). Without the spinning off the line, the RPM's will be lower which will net you less RPM's at the line.
Only Horsepower will increase the trap speeds. Traction will lower ET.
