The 60ft in the video seems like it would have been better than a 2.0.
Did you have to shift before the 60 foot marker?

Car sounds good by the way!

seems like it but it's not lol. all 3 runs i got in that day were very close to this run. 2.0 60's and 13.0xx@105-106mph.

honestly cant remember when i shifted into 2nd because it was so violent and threw me into the seat. i'm still trying to get used to this setup.

Seems like it's not spinning much. The tire size is a little small for the car but should still work. I'm still surprised it only does 2.0 60fts.

Maybe some other people will chime in!

I would let some air out of the slicks, and maybe launch it a little higher. Some of my best 60 ft's are with a little wheel spin.

+1 on the little wheel spin may be better. are you shifting into 5th before the traps? what fd are you using? btw awesome setup and car sounds good and runs good.

shifting into 5th a couple hundred feet before the line. it's got a 5.0FD but going back to either a 4.3 or 4.7

With that FD and the 23 inch slicks your probably shifting before the 60 ft also, which isnt helping your 60 ft times.

Looks like it moves off the line quick in the video. Tire pressure, gearing and for what I assume is a built setup why are you shifting at only 8100?

How much does the car weigh? I can get 1.69 60ft in my prelude on m&h 23x7.5x15. All motor h22 @ 257whp
Go with higher pressure. 12psi which is what I found to be best.
