11.83@119 Jitters


11.51@122




About 420/265 on a 12lb spring






Car is a little porky at the moment with the airbags still in the car, power windows and a big autocross bar and brace on the back, would like to do a little aero work and lighten up the car a bit. Hope to hit 100 in the 1/8th in the next few weeks if the weather holds out. IGN starting to break up on top end had to gap the plugs down a bit, odly I never had any issues on the dyno. Looking into upgrades.

Car continues to go faster as I get more used to it, any advise it appreciated.

Drop the e-brake sooner when you launch haha

And try not lifting off the throttle when you shift, it really helps boost from falling off between gears. If your trans has issues going into the next gear when you do this install a clutch switch if Neptune lets you enable that option. Are you using any gear based boost control?

What size tire and pressure are you running? Need to get that 60' down but that could just be needing some practice.

Still not bad times for that power though!

Im still getting a little anxious at the tree and making mistakes, working on it

No boost by gear yet, I wanted to work on my consistancy before I started making things more complicated and trying to take it easy on parts

MT 24.5x8x15 @ 11PSI, launching at 6k
