well money, i allready know that and thats the technique i use when i launch. lets face it you cant deadhook on crappy old street tires no matter how good you are. one of two things will happen trying to launch on slick street tires
#1-you will not be able to give the car hardly any gas, your 60 ft will suck trying to ease off the line
#2-give it anymore throttle than in example #1 you will spin the tires
either way, your not gonna get some crazy launch like you would on drs or slicks. a car has to have sticky tires to get that power to the ground period!
no stickys=NO LAUNCH
hooking is hooking, if the car hooks on a high rpm launch, if it doesnt bog, if it doesnt stutter than that is a perfet launch and perfect launch=couldnt have been done any better. after the launch there is nothin you can do to improve your time other than getting all your shifts on the money. that is all there is, holding your breath wont help your times, driving with one eye closed wont help it either.
thats all im spent lol![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)

I drove my buddy's bone stock 99 ss a couple months ago on street tires and was down in the 1.96 range on the fist hit in the car. and I drove a stock 04 GTO last year and went 1.99 on stock 245's.. Sub 2.0's are not even an issue if you know how to drive. Let either me or Tim drive your car lol I pulled a 1.62 with my vette on completely bald 3 year old weather checked 275/40/17 dr's lol

My best with my camaro on stock motor set up was a 1.7 60ft. you have to race more then once a year at pir to know what marks to get on when getting to the tree and tire pressure and weight transfer is key and its all on how you use the clutch. alot of people think that if i drive a auto i cant drive a 6speed lol and joey not to be mean but alot of times driver mods help. ![Nod](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_nod.gif)
it all takes practice and a **** load of runs down the quarter to get good time's.
get your car done man and come down and play at the track we still gotta race

Well I have to agree with joe a just a bit. But Joe maybe your car doesn't have the low end to actually pull you hard enough to that 60ft. Anything after that it's all power. Just my .02
P.S not saying it's not possible. I know Tim is a great driver.. Well not better then me

Haaahaaa...yup. I got it to 125 today then backed off because of a semi. I want to burry the needle bad. I've actually been thinking of selling the Bird here soon. Day's like today make me want to keep it though. I think I just need to drive it more and not worry about getting it wet
I think I might do some AI LS6 heads this coming fall/winter if I decide to hold on to it. It would be a beast then.
