1/8 Mile run

shfeddy · 09-15-2014, 11:51 AM

Before I knew how to dragrace properly, i would run 9.2 ish myself. I then began to hold my RPM about 2-3k and launch and got up to 8.6. Try waiting a while between your runs and letting the engine cool off, and waiting also allows the launch pad to become more tacky so you get a better grip when stomping on the gas. 8.9 isnt slow, its average, you just gotta practice with higher launch RPM's. Sidenote, I have a supercharger and barely make 8.2, no way there are stock Z's running that time
