8th mile -your bog in 2nd shift slowed your 8th if you want your 10.999999999 !then you need to get your 8th to 7.1 or 7.2 that will put you right there. Try banging off the rev limiter, in 1st till you have enough speed to not bog in 2nd, or power shift if you are not allready doing so, Jason

Seems like you need to get the shifting skills up.
Nice run though.

listen to jason. your gonna have a hard time getting much better of a 60. your 1/8 needs improvement. either your spinning or bogging and i doubt your spinning. we probably weight about the same and my 1/8ths are around 7.18-7.23 for a 10.80-10.90 run. only 132 mph gave me the 10.82. your almost there.

I would agree that your 8th mile time is low. A few of my friends running 11.7-11.8 are usually pulling the same 8th mile times. Maybe you are short shifting your 1-2 shift and losing alot of boost?

i have always been against power shifting but you guys think that is the only way. The turbo bogs out when i shift into second but i let it bounce of the rev in second and it still bogs?? powershift huh???

only way not to fall out of boost if you shift good you wont hurt second, but dont come back with the shift lever in your hand and say damn that was a good pass.We all no the type that loves to bang gears not power shift, chirping 4th with there stock ex, and wonder why there motor mounts are broke or pressure plate
F-ed up, Jason
