whats wrong with my setup or what am I doing wrong?

119mph is good enough for a low 11 second pass isnt it?

any help much appreciated. 60 ft was 2.1

 

This sounds like a topic for drag forum but anyway more like high 11s 11.7or11.8

 

actually 119mph is high 11'sor low 12's. low 11's is 126-130mph

 

Hell don't feel bad I did 12.6 @ 120.7, traction is a bitch.

 

yeah man just gota practice more and get those launches down. 1.8 60fts help a lot too.

 

haha try 13.3@118mph, thats what a HUGE turbo will do for you, slow off the line and then no traction lol, like two extreme's.

either learn how to drive
or get some better slicks


with at least dropping the 60' down to 1.6 or 1.7, it will run 11.7-11.8

That is not too bad. I went 12.01@118 my first time out. My 60' was like 2.2 or something. More seat time will get you numbers you are looking for. What slicks were you on and what kind of power are you making?

 

LOL, i've done worse....13.5 @ 119mph little 14x20x7 slicks and missing 5th gear everytime will cause this

 

that is not to bad. i ran a 12.5 @118 while back. then recently went 11.7@124 with a 1.9 60ft.

 

What did you change?

 

if u slow down after the launch.. then sped up... u can have a high et and a high speed... i was puzzled by the same thing.. did two runs.. one had a lower et, but a slower speed... the other showed a higher et, and a higher speed...

 

119 could go low 11's if u get outta the hole.. Would need to leave w/ a low 1.6 60' and cut prolly a 4.6 330' but it can be done. Most people go high 11's w/ 119 though. Work on that 60'. how much air pressure in the slicks. what size are they? are they new or old? did u do a burn out? what gear? how much boost off the line?

 

I went 11.0@121mph in a street car 1.7 60ft.

 

sickness, i need an LSD, some stage 9million axles, and some 26" slicks, then ima give it hell!

10's here i come (from 13's haha)

What kind of car was this? I would imagine it would have to be pretty lite.

Get the 60ft. down to 1.7-1.8 and you'll run 11's! Was that on slicks? Looks like maybe drag radials...
