Default Any 1/4 estimates based on current run?

(All of this is at ~5000feet altitude)

My current best is 12.6@115, with a 2.17 60'. The wheels spun all the way through 2nd gear. I had a 13.1@116 with a 2.47 60', as well (a HORRIBLE launch, but a good MPH) to give you another run to base it on. (Using fairly worn nitto 555's, and I also realized that the excessive wheel hop was due to a busted motor-mount bolt... the one that screws into the a/c bracket on my '93 hatchie).

I'm going to hook up a button to switch from low to high boost (/w my profec) during the 2-3 shift, and I'm thinking of using my hondata 2-step launch this time around as well.

Any good estimates of what I can possibly run with perfect driving, and also any tips on launching with the 2-step?

With a 115-116 mph trap speed, I'm guessimating maybe a 11.90-12.0 pass with a 1.7 60' and going through the gears cleanly.

Agreed.

with slicks obviously. Unless you are a true G and can pull a 1.7 on streets.

Do you think that I can up my MPH due to the fact that I was spinning all through 2nd?
