okay, not good at all. But I'm sure you had a lot of fun. Can you post both of your whole slips though? and no need to post reaction times, that doesn't mean ****.

I'm gonna guess that the 60 foot times are in the 2.7-3.0 second range with that kind of E.T. to MPH

i'll post the slips in a bit, i have to sign up with photobucket. i dont care about the shitty times, i broke 100 mph thats all i really cared about. but with practice i should be good. i really really need to work on my launches tho!!!

he didnt, that was the problem, the LSJ is not a easy car to lunch...to high rpms you ******* rattle that car like no tomorrow, to low or none and you bog like a bitch.

andy, i would purchase TTR upper and lower tranny mounts, worlds of difference and im sorry to say but some manitobian memebers have strong opinions against them for some odd reason. do your research and you will find that combo together really makes your car easier to lanch and better 60 ft times

They don't have free air at the track? You should check into that, every track I have been to has an air compress. free of charge.

hey, I can't see stuff from photobucket since I'm deployed right now. Gov't computers won't show it. But just for reference, as I can tell that you are extremely new to this, it isn't 0-60 time. LOL. It's 60ft. time. Basically, how many seconds it takes you to cover the first 60ft. which has everything to do with how many seconds you cover the 1/4 mile in.
