ok just got back from the track here in maryland (capital raceway)

and finally hit the 12's i admit i need more seat time to get my crappy 60' ft down but i am happy still

60' 1.99

1/4 mile ---12.736@117 mph

sry for the missing 1/8 mile data i lost the dam slip

i also need a shift light i am launchin the car around 5500rpms i think and that may be to high even for dr's

i got 5 runs in

14.1@107
13.4@111
13.3@116
12.7@117

and a 13.4@91 i missed 4th gear
my 60' a 2 or 2.1 only 1.99 on the 12.7 run

i will be back once i get the fmic and 3.12 pulley on

Hell yeah! Its always fun to get the first 12second slip! Now you gotta go out and get an 11second slip! Your mph shows the car is certainly capable.

Frist off not to bad. Its def. a lot left in it at the 60' mark for sure. What drag radials are you running? Size? I am hoping to accomplish a feat as well....hoping to jump right from 13's to 11's......Im dreaming that my first pass out will be in the 11's.....but like I said...Im dreaming

With more seat time at the track and some work on your launches, it should go 11's easy

where are you shifting the car? 6700-7000k? I wouldn't worry about a new pulley. Get your setup dialed in and then go with more power once you get the car going down the track. I might look into a set of real tires with the amount of power you are making.

"shocking" drag radials will usually result in worse sixty foot times. I would try slipping the clutch at a lower rpm. Even if you bog the first couple times, you can work your way up until the car doesn't bog.

thxs for the advice ......

i am using 315 17" drag radials nitto 555r
tires they are better then my old street tires

as for my shift i am shifting around 6000rpms speed shifting

but i am looking at getting a set of 15" welds and a 27-28" tire
i dont want slicks because the car is a daily driver ride

i also have a set of 31-spline and differencal setting in my basement just in case
