Little slower than I thought you would do but sounds like you need to do everything a little better. A 2.1 60ft isnt that bad, but even so I would have thought your top end would be nasty and pull 115mph +. Regardless you had fun and you've now taken a turbo Z down the track, next time I want to see low 12's

Third and fourth did pull nasty, I was watching the mph needle pulling faaaast, if I could launch first and powershift second and not worry about to much spin, powering into third and fourth with all that speed should put me up at 115+ range. I think I am going to need a clutch though, I have been doing some first gear pulls on the street and it seems to be holding ok, but I think before next track time if I am going to launch and powershift the gears, I am going to need a new one....

I def would not powershift a stock clutch at your power levels. A good lift throttle shift will be just as effective...btw what was your 1/8 ET and speed? I wanna get an idea of how hard your car is pulling from top of 3rd to almost top of 4th. For reference my best 2nd 1/8 pull has been 26-27mph.

I might just upgrade if I have to do a clutch aynways, my 1/8th's were 8.4 seconds, at 87 mph, my 12.8 seconds passes had 113+mph traps except for the first one. So thats about 24 mph?

Thats 26mph of pull, right on. I didnt know you trapped 113mph I only saw the 110-111mph you posted. The main problem is the launch and 1-2 and 2-3 gear shifts as like I said its doing ok up top.

I cant believe that the stock clutch is even holding as well as it is. Thats funny.

I'm sure once you get used to your cars power and get its shifts down, you will run better times. You cant really work on your 60' all that much right now, so just perfect that 1-2 shift and that 2-3 shift. Good luck.
