Where are you coming up with 6ft. lol, 660-600=60, so thats 60ft. not 6ft. & 60 feet will make a difference.

That's where he got the 6ft.

Bottlefed98 said it was a 600FT and Blackz93 was stating it didnt take him 1/2 second to go 6ft

i'm guessing it should read 82mph, not 72. no way that car went 8.3 @ 72 on a 1.86 60'. unless he sprayed it 2nd gear only and then jumped on the brakes haha.

no way he would go low 13s/high 12s @ 92-94 mph on a 1.8x 60'.

not a bad time, just get it tuned to shift properly and find some n2o.
also, how much air pressure in the tires? i would expect a better 60' with a 3k stall, 373s, and those tires.

My tranny does the same thing and i have a tune. I'm disappointed in my times as well. I've put the car on a diet to help with times.

www.mobiledragway.com is the tracks website and it IS 600'
Ive always been told to disregard the 594ft times on the slip

most people around here average a 3-4 tenth difference going from this track to a true 8th


just to give you a better idea of the #s being a little off here is my best motor pass at this track..
7.71 @ 82.93mph
