Went to the track yesterday for the second points race. I'm getting allot of tire spin out of the hole. I'm launching at 4500 and just dumping the clutch. Getting good bark in second. My best 60' was a 1.70 yesterday. I have Eibach pro springs that lower the car 1 1/4" and stock shocks and struts. I'm wondering if going to Moroso drag springs or Eibachs with adjustable AGX shocks would get my 60' down. I'd love to get my 60' in the 1.5s. Also I have BBK solid lowers and Steeda adjustable uppers. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Nathan

Good 60' you got there. I used to do 1.8 60' but now since I got KYB AGX ADj shocks and struts I can't launch *****. I need to find out what setting best on KYB.

Front struts got 1-4 and back shocks got 1-8

Thats a good 60' for stock shocks/struts and Eibach Springs. With the adjustable shocks/struts you'll be able to make the back VERY soft to let the weight transfer and the car squat down. Stiffen the front up as well and i bet itll def. Help on your times.

caution: Moroso Drag springs are NOT for street use.

as stated above, better coil springs would help (just not the Moroso, unless its not a street car) and removing some weight will help too, or moving weight around like a trunk mounted battery

I don't know, dumping your clutch at 4k and still getting a 1.7 60' to me is not half bad. I'd be absolutely amazed if my car got enough traction to cut a 1.7 60' and I'm N/A. Maybe I just need to run Mickeys. /shrug

Why don't they recommend them on the street?
