launch 4500 to 5k
kinda feather it and make sure it doesnt bog under 4500 or so...
205 50 15 federal tires
tein ss

 

feather the gas till it grips

 

i rev to 3500... dump the clutch and if i notice its going to spin and burn the **** out of my tires, i start to lay off and feather till she grips...

depends if i get the tires warmed up enough.... i'd like to get a set of 20inch slicks

what was your tire psi. the best i could get on the same tires was a 2.3. Did you heat the tires up?

 

2.43

^dont know if thats right

 

2.2X

205/50/15 AVS ES100's

Omnipower Sport Coilovers (12k/10k)

Tire pressure at about 20 psi, do a burn out just to clean the tires off. Rev to about 4k, dump the clutch, and give it 3/4 throttle until it hooks, then i go WOT.

I'm still aiming for 2.0-2.1 with these tires..

 

no one with street tires should be doing a burnout before you drag. it is making the tires more slippery. burnouts are meant for warming up drag tires.

Not from my experience atleast. Sometimes people drag water into the staging lanes, so a little burn out to brush that water off doesn't help. It's not even really a burn out either.

 

2.412
195-55-15 blades
factory tires that came on the car 5 years old
5k launch
feathered the gas until i got traction
lowered on eibach pro kit at the time

kuhmo ecstas 205/50/16s wrappin the advan rgs

onmi racing suspension

i dropped the front of my car just a little bit...lit the bitches up...steady foot at 3500 while balancing my clutch (exedy plate with act disc) then let go of the clutch then feathering the gas

 

nice 60'! What was your 1/4 mile time? Were they the 711s or 712s?

 

they were 711's in the front. i clocked in @ 13.1 untuned. this is a 4dr too...

 

i set my psi @ 25 pounds and no, i dont heat up the tires. just pratice and pratice and more pratice plus good suspension and motor mounts insert helps a lot, believe it or not.

 

2.4
