Well I don't have a scanner so I can't show yall any slips. I got two 15.7 in a 1/4 mile and the rest of my runs were 15.8

MY BEST RUN
1/4 ET 15.7
RT .7697

MY WORST RUN DUE TO ME SNEEZING WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN LOL
1/4 ET 16.3
RT 1.3

soon I will have some vids of the car going down the track.

OH NOT MANY COBALTS CAN SAY THIS NOT EVEN THE SS/SC I BELIEVE. I BEAT A 05+ MUSTANG GT LOL OK FINE HE JUMPED THE GUN AND GOT A RED LIGHT BUT I DON'T CARE I BEAT HIM BY DEFAULT

 

i was like you went to the track in deember!!????!?!?!...... THEN i saw your from texas lol. Pretty nice numbers. You had my Grand Prix GT beat by .2 of a second and Im sure you can get it better with some good launches. what were your 60ft times? and your trap speeds?

 

60ft was 2.4233 and my trap speed was 86.36 and these stats are for my 15.7 run, also on that run my 1/8th was a 10.11 and at 71.23mph

 

what RPM are you launching at and are you getting any wheelspin? also, what size tires are on your car?

 

I was launching at 2000rpm I believe, and yeah I was getting some wheel spin, and i have the stock pirellis

 

nice times you got there you barely got me beat

 

tracks in december? man, ill be there on friday! its supposed to be in the 50's, im hoping to run a 14.3-14.2 stock power. stock everything, actually...

 

Damn dude, that's like a low to mid 15 with a 2.1 60 ft there. Keep practicing

 

are you running through the waterbox? if so....... STOP. go around it and just spin your tires a little bit to clean them off. you dont need to roast your tires in these cars. They aren't slicks or DR and dont need to be heated up. but i bet you can get your 60ft to at least a 2.2X with a good launch. that should get your time down to roughly around a 15.5X. try launching at about 15-1700 rpm to see if that helps with the wheelspin. dont drive through the box and that should help as well.

 

Yeah thats one of the great things on living in Texas lol the dragstrip is always open!!!

thanks for the advice I was driving around the waterbox, and I was spinning the tires when I pulled up to the line. I'll tryl the 15-1700rpm launch as well. Do you think it would help if I lowered the tire pressure? Also I just need to find that sweet spot when you shift from L-I
