Yep, J is getting a 1.8 60' which is very impressive on a street tire (RE-11) and his 1/8 is very quick. That run is basically all launch and really quick shifting to finish it off down the track.

yea thats my point, people are talking about improving 1/4 time through the launch, and he's already pretty much doing it really well. i can't see him getting a better launch without shredding his axle or w/e. and even if he did, we are talking about a few 1-2 tenths, not like a second. so i dont know where people are gonna get off saying that are car is gonna touch the 5.0 on the strip

Well, mod-for-mod, it will never touch a 5.0 on the strip. But I think IF the drivetrain can handle a launch of MT ET Streets, he could shave 3 tenths if he can cut a 1.6x 60'.
