Default what are good 60' times for a m6

i pulled a fastest 60' of 1.6 on a not so good track. i am running et streets at 16lbs. i did not seem to get a good weight transfer. i felt my front end pull a little but didnt seem close to picking a wheel up. i am around 3800lbs. it does feel like my car bogs a little at the take off. i was trying different launches 4000rpm, 5000rpm, and 5500rpm. all mods are in sig. any suggestions??

I had a 1.64, stock internals with 4.10's et streets and the stock Zo6 clutch.

Get a set of Qa1's.......that will help with the weight transfer.
And some weight reduction.

1.4 60s would be considered good.


I got a 1.47 in my F-body
I got a 1.44 in a FRC vet
both vehicles had 26/10.5/16 ET Streets.

1.6 60s are not too bad, is 3800 race weight or curb weight? I'm at 3420 curb with a 6pt roll bar & 9" Moser. Weight reduction is Bogarts, AC, ABS, air pump, spare tire, jack, rear seats, rear & mis speakers, Monsoon amp, antenna, owners manual & floor mats. On 26" ET Streets I hold the motor at 3-4k, floor it on the second light & drop the clutch on the 3rd light. Usually spins a few feet & hooks, rarely bogs.
