Re: (Jokerluv)

The only thing that will really help reaction times is practice but 60fts' can be lowered with better tires/slicks traction bars there's lots of little things with that. If you search on here there's lots of info, it really helped me I've gone from 2.2-2.4 60's to now 1.9-2.0 60's and now that I bought my slicks hoping for 1.7-1.8's!!!

here's one thing I'm working on doing better now. You've probably seen people launch and spin the tires all the way through first. then they hit redline and shift. If the tires never got traction then the spedo would say 35 and they might only be going 25. When you shift to second the tires stop spinning and grip. When you put it back in gear you are only going 25 mph and are in second gear and that makes you bog really bad. If you're not ahead after 330' you probably won win unless you have LOTS of HP.
