1.4 60ft?? it has to be an error...

i ran 1.5 60ft one time - but missed 2nd, so the run was screwed up...
either way - i never go below 2.2 with same type of launch

the 60' timing light was 20 ft too close

Slicks but I doubt that is right. I woudl think that for him to claim that he woudl nee to produce 1 or 2 more slips with 60's close to that time and preferabl;y from a different track

yeah.. i was all happy too - i only got one run that night.. then after talking to people find out that it happens every now and then..

for 1.4-1.5 - fwd car has to be pushing a lot of hp..

1.4 60ft?? it has to be an error...

i ran 1.5 60ft one time - but missed 2nd, so the run was screwed up...
either way - i never go below 2.2 with same type of launch

When your racing by yourself, reaction time means jack ****. Spend the extra few ticks to get your launch right!

staged off the rear tires, many people do it messing around or not knowing how to stage.

OK, didn't think about running by yourself.


Would it be possible to get that 60ft time if you put your rear wheels inbetween the timing lights. That would give you ~101 inch head start???

2.3-2.4 60 ft times own me.
If you had that 60' time, you would probably be deep in the 12's. Average for a friend of mine who ran 12.8x -13.0x consistently was 1.75-1.9 60' ....Agreed, must be a timing error!
