What is your best 60ft on street tires, not dr's.

What happened is that the 60' timing lights were tripped by something accidentally. That 60' isn't possible in this instance.

Show us a 1.5 or even a low 1.6 to back that up and I MIGHT start to believe that it was actually possible. (which I already know it's not.)

I don't think you understand what goes into pulling a sub 1.5 60' time. Hell...my Z on a slick launching from 6000rpms has only pulled a best of 1.62 and that took full traction and 430rwhp.
I wouldnt mind seeing another slip if you got one. I will take it back if you can show me more then that.
That slip just doesnt add up at all. A 1.4 60', but then a 6.0 330'? I guess when you said you miss-shifted you werent kidding. Thats one hell of a miss-shift.

That's pretty decent for a virgin drag racer, nice job.

The kids do it all the time at the local 1/8th mile track.
However, there are STI's and EVO's there that run 1.6 60' times 100% stock down to the tires. That is with a pretty much perfect launch.

probably...huge difference between a 1.6 and a 1.4 though....
If the rear tires were at the line, not the front tires, then this would make sense.
If you do it out mathmatically, it almost works perfectly.
A 2.0sec 60', means you covered an avg of 30' per sec.
So, with about 7' less, assuming the rear tires are on the line, it would only take you about 1.43 sec to hit the 60' line on the track. Then this would make sense. So in this case I would tell you CJ, that it seems like you really got just over a 2.0 sec 60'. Good job!!

I can hardly break 2.2 on the sixty foot mark, lol. I have hit 2.1 a couple of times. I don't have a good track up here though, I ran a 8.3 at 88, had to let off I was spinning hard then the next run, I feathered it and ran 8.5 and had to let off in 3rd but had a trap of 90.0 mph. I would love to see what my car would run without any type of traction issues.
I would be in the 7's in the 1/8th with some of your 60' times, I am kind of jealous.
