Critic my M6 launch
Out of curiosity, what gear do you guys with linelocks use for burnouts? First or second? I will be watching this thread as I am about to take mine to the strip for the first time.
Just dont watch my burnout in my video haha, Later on in the day burnout was better i was useing second gear.
Here is another video and my best of the day. Car doesnt transfer the front is bouncing and probly unloading the tires= Terrible looking launch lol was happy for the first time on the track with this car. Dont mind that trans am he was haveing problems all day getting his car to work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxfdt...eature=channel
2nd gear was no problem with 3.42's. Gets 'em good and hot without a crazy amount of revs. 3-4k is plenty to generate some billowy smoke! Then just release the button and roll out of it.

Rear looks to be unloading too quickly also. Move those LCA's up a hole and try that.
I think I will put the control arm up one hole remove the front sway bar and differnt air pressure in the tires. Need to by a damn line lock. Thanks for the help. didnt know the launch look so terribly untill i watch this video haha i was just happy it was in the 11s,
Play around with the launch rpm too, but I'd just do a good burnout and get 'em smoking a bit. And as others said, adjust the suspension, pull the front sway and see what she does. Let me know if you go to TNT on tuesdays at all, I might just join.

you need adjustable shocks NOW, i run my front sway bar all the time and i have full suspension and my car launches like this, on a small old slick, i need to stiffen my rear shock settings next time out
Yeah I think that is next on my list is shocks. Guess i start saving for those, Is there any differance with Madmans afco compared to buying from someone else where i possibly could get them cheaper. Or should i be good with some Strange single adjustable in rear and doubles in the front.

I have heard from many guys local that I should have gotten Afco Doubles for the rear esp. since I want to run Radials. I use the single adj QA1s "R"s up front, they are valved different on the rebound side I think to keep the front from crashing down. They work great and for next year Ill have some DAs for the rear of my junk! Im no expert but the guys that have told me have had or work on really fast cars. Im sure some "expert" will chime in and say doubles up front and singles in the rear but IMO its the other way around..
Yeah i was thinking doubles up front and singles in the rear. Why not doubles on all four the only problem i see with that is PRICE. But if doubles would be worth it I would buy them. Spent too much money to cheap out on shock i would imagine.
I wanted doubles frontand rear but couldnt afford it at the time. But I feel doubles in the rear are more important, You can control the rearend more and keep it planted..
