This was the first good race I've had. My car runs low 12s, maybe 11s now. We started from a roll about 45-50 and took it up to 95-100. This was a week spot for me being an A4 but I figured I would over power by enough. Well his car was alot faster than I was expecting. He got the hit and took a car and a half on me right away. I played catch up the rest of the way. I pulled on him untill he hit the brakes right before I passed him. He had a very strong car, he said he was running 17lbs of boost? I don't know how the whole boost thing works but it was good to race a car that can give a good fight. I had no idea those evos could be fast.

What mods do you have?

Same exact damn thing happened to me while roll racing from around those speeds. The turbo'd car pulled 2-3 cars immediately, and stays that way. Higher speeds I start inching up, but we shut 'er down around that time. M6 or M5 cars can launch from whatever RPM they want, and watch for that break boosting. It DOES work out a lot better for you if you just throw that ****** down in 2nd and launch from a 40 roll from there, you should do much better.

why is 45-50 a weak spot for you if you low 12s and now possibly 11s.. tell me you have a good stall !!

If I hammer it from 45-50ish, the car downshifts and takes off like a raped ape!!

F14 and Yank ss4000. Bolt ons too of course. Launching is my advantage, I have a lot of susspension mods too. I was pulling 1.7s every time with my old setup, vig 3800, dented headers and 3.23s. Now I have the yank, qtps and 3.73s, I think I can pull at least 1.5s, the car feels much stronger.

because you dont have that many rpm's in 2nd gear on a 4 speed auto trans at that speed

What was your MPH when you ran the low 12?

This is true. I only have a vig3000 and 2nd gear is done at 70mph@6000rpms. My best power range from a roll would be 35-40. Thats the only way the trans will shift down into 2nd. Over 40 itll just go to 3rd which isnt worth ****! It kinda sucks cause nobody wants to race from a 40 roll. Most people wanna go from 50-60. Especially turbo cars! I run my cousins srt-4 all the time. With my gears i can just barley pull on him over 90.

12.2 at only 109, like I said my launch is my advantage after that I'm not very strong. I'm hoping its a little better now though, I think my vig 3800 was very unefficient. I think my new ss4000 should be a little better.

Exactly.
