Default im slow (with video)

my first run was the best. i finally got the hang of launching on the third run but the clutch got hot and stuck to the floor and i missed second. i think for the mid 90 temps and high humidity i did ok. my mods are slp lid, mac midlength headers, and dumped exhaust

reaction -- .228
60ft -- 2.2991
330 -- 6.0372
1/8 et -- 9.0254
1/8 mph --82.80

Get the 60ft. down and you should be running somewhere in the 8.4-8.5 range. What kind of tire are you using?

Redline is a very nice track also.

i have kuhmo ecsta supra tires with 40% tread left. i heard redline is an ok track but the crowds at denton are small especially after eleven. when i left at midnight there was no line to get lined up at the tree so plenty of opprotunity to get runs in.
