Nice runs man. What do you have done your suspention/tires to launch at 5500 and not spin all over the place?

26x9-15 slicks for the most part
subframe connectors, rebuilt and overpacked t-lock that i built myself with 3.27gears.
power mods: Drop in K&N, March Underdrive pullies, mac shorty headers, 2.5" hpipe, stock catback with 40series Flowmasters.
and a driver driving like he stole it :)

Cool!! :up:

Good to see that you got into the 13's. Get that 60' down into some low 1.8's or high 1.7's and you'll see 13.7xx.

BTW, how are you launching?? Drop clutch or slip clutch technique?? Sounds like your just dropping it. Try letting the clutch out a little slower, and when it's fully engaged, floor it, and don't let off the throttle unitl the end. :)

That's not too bad of a drop, 1.3 seconds from a 150 shot.

But how does a 1.7 second drop from 15.8's to 14.1's sound?? And that was with just a 75 dry shot.
