Default 12's at least?

i have the exact same problem as DOHCarp i cant hit 12's...setup is stock GSR motor with 273.5 whp and 204.2 tq. with M/T 24.5x8x13 on 13 inch lenso's 12psi tire pressure
I dont think i burned out long enough (2-4 secs)
My 1/4 mile slip says: (Two step was NOT used)
reac= .539
I1=2.229
I2=5.852
I3=8.847
Mph(I3)=84.170
I4=11.359
E.T.=13.495
MPH=106.738

My other 60 ft' was 2.019 with two step set to 5,200, but misshifted 2nd and 3rd gear and got a 14 sec pass. I think this should have been a 12 but i never tried it with two again since i got scared of hitting 14's again for some reason...any info would help

1. Lower your tire pressure.
2. Doing a burnout too long can hurt traction.
3. 2 Step should be set way higher. Try a 7500rpm.
4. What springs and shocks are you running????

try launching at 6500-7000 with the slicks on, u should be getting 1.8 60 foots. 2.0-2.2 are terrible with slicks.

Yah it takes practice defently need practice on drag radials i can pull consistent 2.0 on slicks and that size you shoud be able to pull 1.8's My buddy w/ 20x8x14 pulled numerous 1.9's and thats what it took for him to hit 12's. Just keep practicing. Good luck

The last drag car we set up pulled 1.6 60ft all day long. You NEED adjustable shocks and coilovers.
