my best time was 10.4 in the 1/8th mile.is that good or bad, average?.

What elevation is the track at?

It must be high because I've gotten a 10.1 in my 2.2 with a few bolt ons.

 

1100ft

 

Hmmm. The place I was is at 1200 IIRC. What was your 60'?

 

time slips are in the car,i'm not sure what they were.

 

go get them the slip will let us tell you what you can do to improve.

 

with a little practice most stage 2 guys run low to mid 9's in the 1/8th...with slicks some have broken into the 8's...my buddy ran an 8.3 @85 with S2, K&N intake, Spec 2+ clutch, and S2 axles with slicks

 

What i run in the 1/8th with my 2.2 is in the sig, but i have seen a ss\sc run 10.6 and a friend of mine ran 9.3s on stage 2 with a fucked up clutch but 9.5 or 9.6 with a new one.....

 

so are u guyswarming up the tires?, what kind of rpms are u launching at?. i must be doing somthing wrong.

from what i have SEEN (i haven't driven one at the track) you can't really launch it, if your at a newer track that isn't sticky you have to go off idle or your screwed, if your at a sticky track.....Don't break an axle!

 

even with fresh vht on the track i was spinning so bad. i tried launching at about 3000 rmp and that didn't work,tried at idle as well and was slow as hell.

any suggestions on how to inprove my times?.

 

I went 8.7 in the 1/8th on slicks, stock pulley. 2.0 60ft. Should be able to pull a 8.5/4 when I get back, I only got one good track day in with the slicks.

 

i just can't figure out what i'm doing wrong. my 60ft times were and ave of 2.5.

thats god awful terrible, sorry bro.

or some of us have run mid 8's on dr's and street tires

yea, you def. need to practice bro. you need to try leaving off idle and just get a feel for it. mounts and dr's need to be on your list of things to buy as well.
