That timeslip is actually my PB with a better 60' then when I ran in the video. The last pass in the video would have been my PB but I let out in 3rd when the car got squirly, then got back in it.
If I had a set of slicks it would be deep in to the 10s easily. I'm not doing anything on my short-track. 2 second 60's will not get me anywhere lol

yeah, but your 60's looked alot better this time out then last. are you preloading? I pulled a 1.8 on 615's with my hatch when i had the gsr swap, but thats all that was good. after i had not gears due to a failing clutch master. **** was weak. I am getting more and more pumped watching your car. I think you can get a low 10 pass. With new slicks and skinnys in the rear my guess is a 10.2xx with a 1.6 60'.

Ya I preload and leave off my 2step which is at 5400. The car makes 12psi on 2step and as soon as I preload and let out it makes 20psi. Its killing these tires because they arent a full slick. Also when I go to a 24.5" tire it will let me use more of my power band over the course of the entire 1320. Should be cookin' with some better tires 

I'm no suspension guru but I run 10k front and 12k rear. They are Omni Power coilovers. The car doesnt seem to have alot of weight transfer to the rear tho. Most drag guys run 18k but I think my setup is working well. The lack of tire is killing me tho.

I hear alot of guys running some camber in the front so when the tire lifts up it is more on the contact patch. Before I never would read about guys or hear at the 1320 them talking about set-ups like that. just drive it down the strip. As long as your *** isn't squating you should be fine. I can't wait to see my friend get his teg out. It's been years. I am pumped up for you man!!!!!!!!!!! just remember 10.2xx @145 with a 1.5 60' when you get the slicks! are you getting 24.5 or 26"?

Ya I have read that some people run very little negative camber but if you look at the vid, the suspension doesnt really unload but the tires actually grow inside the wheel wells. That may have to do with the traction bars as well so when I put the 24.5's on it, I'll have to have my buddy re-align my car.
There was one of these out at the track, as well, on Saturday. He was running Intermediate, so I got to watch it for a few laps. It sounded so nice.
