It would've if I had not short shifted two gears. That's the only reason I'm not happy.

You have a reasonable 60'. But your trap is poor. Your car pretty heavy?

That's a big part of the problem right there. Not to hard to pull at least 150 pounds out if the car. It'll pop into the 11's with ease then.

You don't have any experience launching a stick car (or any car) at the drag strip. Until you do, you have nothing to offer.

Not disclosing all my mods yet. Doing some more WR to it tomorrow then I'm going to weigh it. Sounds like it'll be 4 weeks for my rims and that should knock off at least another 50 pounds.

You know nothing of how my car works or where and nothing about the dragstrip. Mimicking your idol's weight saving techniques doesn't help anybody. Run your car at a dragstrip and post up a time then I'll maybe pay attention to something you post. Until then, useless.
