New Best, Which got me booted for no Cage!!!

TRMachOne · 01-13-2008, 08:18 AM

Well I went out today in hopes for a new best, and couldn't believe the results. They let me slide on the first pass, but told me to go home after my second pass. I just couldn't believe the 60'!!!

All mods are in my sig, besides my Big and Lil's. I run a 28x9 ET Drag, and a 27.5x4.5 ET Front on Weld Draglites.

very nice times. congrats. 1.4-1.6 60' times are badass.

what year is your ride?

tsumi88 · 02-08-2008, 08:15 AM

on your second slip, I see you were on the left of car 137....
what was that?!

cre8787 · 02-08-2008, 01:28 PM

Very nice times... I wish I had 31 spine axles

that way i could use d/r's.

r3dn3ck · 02-08-2008, 01:31 PM

you can use dr's as it sits. Don't be leaving on nitrous from 5000 rpm but otherwise you should be able to cut some nice launches on stock axles. Upgrading just keeps you from breaking them as easily as you can stockers... not from breaking them at all.

cre8787 · 02-08-2008, 01:38 PM

If i get d/r's, what would you rec launching at??? (I dont spray in first)

cre8787 · 02-08-2008, 01:39 PM

my window is 3,000- 5,500

r3dn3ck · 02-08-2008, 01:45 PM

as high as it responds well to. That's different by track, car, driver, day, etc... so there's no hard and fast rule. The faster you spin it the harder it'll try to launch. Sometimes that lands you with a spoon full of wheel spin, sometimes it lands you in 1.4sec 60' times.

cre8787 · 02-08-2008, 01:48 PM

You have a great point... I think im going to try a d/r. if i post in a month that i need to rebuild, you guys will no why... thanks for the advise red

There is a good chance that you would have even better slips with a rollbar in that car. Tighten up the body and you would be amazed at the difference.
As far as the D/R question, I can tell you guys I launch mine on D/R's at 6K and it sticks.

rtracer408 · 03-29-2008, 12:03 PM

6k yikes...
