Faster1/8 time
Took the Boss to the track on Friday nite, ran a new best of 7.11 @ 99 mph.
60' was 1.58.
I had problems getting the car to hook up, again. I lowered tire pressure to 14 psi, I am guessing it was a combination of temp cooling down and I wasn't heating the tires up enough. Just not sure.
Really wanting a high 6......

You should be into the 6's with that MPH.
My best was a 7.67 @ 100 with a 2.54 60' with no launch to speak of on 18" DR's.
Had a friend put his slicks on it and he took my car to a 6.96 @ 101 w/a 1.65 60'

Sounds like you need to upgrade the driver mod.

With a big power stick car, the car is much more unsettled going down the track making it more of a challenge to ET well. A well running auto car is nothing more than just point and shoot. Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

I just need to drop a few grand on drag wheels and tires that I use once or twice a year.
No thanks.

LOL, you just can't drive apparently. I was pulling 1.7'-1.8's my first time in this car at the track on 20 inch DR's.

Any car that can go 100 in the eighth should be able to cut a 1.8 on any tire at any time. That would literally just be letting out the clutch like at a traffic light and then rolling into it. If you could only cut 2.5 second 60's then you just don't know how to drive, sorry. Practice will help.

lol there is a big difference in getting 400hp and 700+hp to hook lol, but agreed 2.54 is pretty bad. Seat time will help
