Hey guys

So I am just curious how many of you guys like to barrel down the 1/4 with these rocket ships. Also curious on 60’ times, launch techniques etc. I’m learning my new setup and hoping for 10’s this year. PB so far is 11.2 with a 1.8xx 60’ Not where I want to be with the power I’m putting down but I’m on stock suspension still, soon to be changed. 100whp ago I managed a 1.729 60’ on 20” 555rs so on my 15” mickeys I need to be doing much better


Cheers
Sean

693, so yea basically 700 lol. The car actually 60 foot better before the corn And the clutch. I change the whole bunch of stuff at once and I’m still trying to figure out how to get the power to the ground now. I really think it needs suspension

Nice setup and numbers. How new is the clutch? Did you just break it in? If so you'll dial it in. All combos take time to figure out. That extra power the corn gave you is making the car launch/feel differently. You'll get there. If I remember correctly can't you adjust the suspension to be stiffer, or more "giving"?

It’s broken in, I went through the break in procedure as per spec in the manual. I believe I have the rear shocks set to “soft” I really just need more seat time. Once I get my sh!t together I’m hoping to be mid 10’s but right now that’s still just a pipe dream

I cheated and went auto, still working out the rear suspension.
