Made it to the track today disappointing results
Made it to the track today disappointing results 13.245@110.11 was the best time today with a 2.147 60ft.
Real shitty track prep.
By the end of the day I was trapping 111.05 and 111.30 easily but hitting 13.3's to 13.6's. Track prep was horrible!

I used the Nt555r's and I couldn't get them hot enough. Being FWD; caused me to have to drive around the water box, back up to it.. and stop just before the rear tire hit the water. I would then apply the parking brake and floor it. The car would drag the back tires.. and the car would haul *** up to the staging lights. Bremerton raceways burn out box is only about 10ft. So I had no room to really do anything at all.
I think I was only getting the tires warm enough to bring out the oils in the compound and this oil; is what was causing me to spin so badly.. I've been researching lol..
So... I need to figure out a way to get the tires nice and hot. Seems like a 20 sec burn out is the standard procedure. I also need to find a way to keep the *** end from squatting down when launching. This is causing the front end to lift. Intense racing used to sell a RASK kit to prevent this but nobody seems to know what happened to it. I know about the GTO spring blockers but I can't find those either.
If I can get a 1.7 I'd be shave a sec off of my ET. I would have been happy with a 2.0.
I'm very happy.. with the MPH. My car with me in it weighs 3865.

another option...just putting it out there...you could go to Auto Zone and get the all solid black ones...they work...just have to make sure they are in there good...they work great too!! dont put no more than 1 per spring...only cause the other one wont get as much pressure and will fly off and bounce all over the interstate toward the cars behind you...i know from experience..thank you very much, thats all i have to say 'bout thaaaaat! LOL
