Florida

60' 1.939
1/4 mile 12.915
Mph 106.93

So you pulled a 1.9 while I pulled a 2.0, I trapped 1mph higher than you, but you beat me by 3 tenths at the 1/4. Weird. Congrats on the 12sec pass!

We don't have downhill around here, it's all flat as can be.

obviously FL is flat. regardless of that, lately FL people have posted some low times. 12.91 stock is pretty ridiculous. I think I need to go run in FL

I'm sure it's because we are so close to sea level.

Another "downhill" Florida track

ssmoked: Did you let the computer shift for you, or did you tag it on your own? Curious to know what works best.

It took me about 4 visits (~25 runs) to the drag strip to achieve that time. Here is what I did:

1. Real burnout with brake fuse pulled
2. Slightly brake torque 500rpm above idle
3. Manual up shift 200 rpm before redline

Not hard to do, but you need perfect traction at the launch

the 60' time can change a lot at the end of the track. I don't think any of my 12's have ever been achieved unless the 60' is below a 2.0

my best ET I had a 1.950 60' and trapped 111mph

^^^ This. Perseverence, small gains, and control.

Sounds familiar to me.

Good stuff. Thanks!

Update,

We will be at the drag strip this Saturday March 14th, to put our 7AT upgrades to the test. Current 7AT upgrades include: Excedy Clutch Packs / FI Billet aluminum Flex Plate.

In addition, we are on the quest to run 10's in the 1/4 mile. Stay tuned...

SharpByCoop · 03-13-2015, 05:33 AM

It's a long available goal. I wish you the best!

Rule of thumb is every 0.1 shaved from your 60' will result in a 0.2 faster ET.
