I was doing 2k and slowly letting off but I was still burning out every time on 265/35/18's. Any advice? I think I might just need more wheel time and some slicks snd a better drag strip than Heartland Park Topeka.

R/T..... .492
60' ..... 2.289
330.... 6.185
1/8 .... 9.363
MPH... 78.28
1000... 12.072
E/T..... 14.356
MPH... 99.83
You did good. As you mentioned the key is 60 foot time. You might keep a log with launch RPM: 2000 2500 3000. See what works best for you.

Track day is horrible yesterday on our way there it started raining so hard we couldn't see so had to pull over.

Then 20 mins later it looked to clear up ahead so kept going went through few more heavy rains patches.

The track was wet when we got there but clouds were clearing started hour and half late. Track was closed early because of lightning starting.

Wet track and humidity best time I could pull was 13.9@102 I really wanted to see what this new TB could do

On a whole different note I just dropped off my stock 17's and had a set of MT ET streets mounted. After I break in my new clutch I will keep y'all posted.

Going to the shop today to do some top secret testing of a few parts and I think the Z might make a appearance at the track this weekend. Might try to get that 12.8 all motor

I tried something different on the car tonight and I'm really excited to see if it makes a difference at the track. It feels strong though

Well I made 257 on a dynojet awhile back before the 4" intake and tb.
But I took it to different place for the retune and they had a super flow It made less hp but it's faster
But they said the super flow reads lower than the dynojet I was on before

I've went twice since the first time I went earlier this year and both times I've ran slower. Idk if it's the lowering springs not being as stiff as my stock springs were (I changed to Tanabe GF210's after the first time I went) or something is wrong with my car or what but I ran 14.35 the first time I went and the fastest I've ran since has been 14.5. I think I'm probably done for the year. I plan on getting some radial tires in the rear because I literally have no traction on my 265/35/18s. I've been looking at some BFGoodrich 295/35/18s. I also would like to add a few more things and get a tune.
