i think your pretty close on your numbers, modmotor. AND i'm with MT on this one. 14.2 to start with. start with meaning, dont go down there and think your going to run in the 13s your first time. looking at my time slips, i've cut a 2.1 60' first time at the track and was pushing a 14.1 at 98mph. Its all in that 60'. dont spin danny. go with 15 to 20 psi in the tires. launch on the 3rd yellow at 1200 to 1500rpms and then gun it, you can go higher but it will spin more. as for shifting dont let off the gas, push in the clutch and shift as fast as you can. HEY some people need to know these things, so lay off me
