between pre-loading, clutching, feathering gas, and R/T its going to take more than 34 passes to perfect..... yes, I did 34 passes
I did get as a low as a .009 R/T though.. so I'll take that for being a newb

and unless you're staging in the same spot over and over, the car is what makes the reaction time. you can vary roll out by staging deep or light. say you staged real shallow but had an awesome personal reaction time. well since you still have to break the beams and the vehicle has to react, you could still pull a shitty light like a .100 somethin. but say you stage in deeper than you think, and have a shitty personal reaction time. well the car has hardly any rollout before it breaks the beams so you could still pull a light like a .009

yes.. but that was when I was working on my E47 tune I randomly decided to make that day so I just sandbagged the runs thus allowing me to have said passenger to hold and work on said laptop
i ended up only running maybe 3 times alone on my E47 Tune. I went from completely hooking second gear to now spinning part of second. need to figure out how to deal with traction probs -said every cobalt owner ever

I am not on coilovers, just powell YYZ springs (for AutoX). my main goal is just to hit 12's nothing serious but quick enough to mess up some peoples day by getting beat by a cobalt. my ss/tc rims have bald tires on now so I'm trying to find a tire to use as my KDW's on my PF01's are too hard (with too stiff of sidewall) to hook up with well. I'm thinking 235 NT05's as cmiller ran those for a while, 245 NT05's may be pushing it on the 7.5" wide rim I'd imagine
