who knows...how's your reaction time? look into getting better/lighter rim and tire combo. do you have rims right now? are they heavy bling blings? take a look @ the z10 engineering traction bar, that will usually take a bit of time of the 60' especially if youre experiencing wheel hop (bad bad bad)

what does your car weigh? my guess is that the 17's and the light flywheel are killing your 60ft - 2.2 is not bad with your set-up - by the way, reaction time has nothing to do with 60ft time - reaction time is time from green to when you leave and start the timers - 60ft is time from when you leave and start the timers until you go 60ft

What does a light flywheel have to do with killing 60fts?

you usually suffer some low end power loss (due to lack of momentum) on a light flywheel

how does that work? only think you have to do it moderate the pressure (feather the clutch) and maybe launch a lil higher, once you do catch...the rest of the way you're sailing
