Default sfwd guys, what are you 60'?

I have gotten the car to go consistant 1.57/1.58 60's and last night started playing with tire pressure and got her down even more. Right after that something went wrong with the trans/clutch combo. The car was locking me out of 2nd and then 4th. The rest of the run was a wash. left lane...1.542

and yes this was on a 24.5 tire.

My car absolutly sucks to 60 feet. I have tried everything accept the front shock setup. I have been running the same pos setup for a while. I tried the front omni's and it was even worse. lol. My best 60 was in pomona 2005 with a 1.58. Thats with full boost from the hit. Now that I think of it, I was on M&H's too. wtf?

Now if you start talking about 330's I have a hand full of 4.2?'s

i think im the only car in spfwd that has never had a 1.5x 60 foot lol. after i got an alignment my 60's were about the same, 1.62-1.63 but my 330's dropped alot....then everything else went to hell.

next year hopefully i can do a bit better lol

1.55 is the best ive done. Funny thing is the higher I went in tire pressure the better it got. 5.5 to 6.2 And removed all rebound and compression in the front shocks. But I usually do 1.58-1.60 since I added the 70lbs up front. Still gotta mess with the rears a bit since the added weight.

I'm sure just typing in the incrementals will do, probably don't have to get someone to scan it again. lol Nah, wait, i'll call if I don't see the slip.

i was pulling consistent 1.6x this past weekend. 7.5 psi in tha tires and 8-9 psi launching. I never really launch at full throttle though, close but not full. We all have our ways.
