Default Getting Ready For The Track

im trying to get everything ready so i can go to the track but trying to figure out what settings to use on my suspension.. 1st motor is a 410ci m6 I put out 567/528 on motor last week and hopefully when i put the n2o ill have something close to 800.. with that being said suspension consist of moser 12 bolt 3.73, qa-1s all around, bmr extreme sway bar, bmr panhard bar, bmr lower control arms, bmr sumbframes, relocation brackets and spohn adj torque arm, i think i have it set on -1. anyways i have a set of draglites 15x8 with et streets, its 28" tall tire but cnt remember the width.. well i tried them out and dont really hook when i dump the clutch they only work if i start slow then punch it but my car feels like a turtle lol..i think i should change to 4.11, but i think i read it would be better to have 3.73 with n2o.
if your m6 and getting low 60ft can you post your track settings including
tire size and gear ratio.. thnx.

those are great na numbers, what's your setup

adjust your t/a to -2.5

4.11 will make you go thru gears way fast. stay 3.73 on teh sauce.

hope ou have a really good clutch.

its hard for manual cars to hook period.

well actually right now ive just tried it on the streets but tried itagainst my buddies car auto 393ci.. ******* smokes me hard in both the roll and dead stop but hes car hooks like a **** lol.. i do have a good clutch forgot to mention heres the set up

lme 408ci, afr 225's 66cc, fms cam 250/257, 1-7/8 kooks, callies crank, lunati rods, diamond pistons -2cc,morel lifters, mezier elec wtr pump, ati damper, fast intake, nw throttle body, full suspension well i think lol, 12bolt, built t56, nitrous driveshaft.. you know the basics lol.. I was thinking with 4.11 gears my car will really not hook for **** on the streets but it will feel better with teh 28" slick. but 3.73s will do better on the n2o.. these numbers are just n/a but i would like to get a good et when i go to the track. by the way i have to sets of rims the only thing is that i have all four rims on draglites but the rear are only 15x8, but i have a set or rear rims with prostars that are 15x10..so i would like to run the 15x8 since i have all four butcant really run a wide enought tire lol.. suggestion?

by the way ive been wondering what cr i ended up at.. i think somewhere close to 12:1
