What rpm are you leaving at?
when it was warm out this year I was leaving between 6200-7000, the past few weeks have been between 5000-5800 in the cold weather to hook the car. the launches in both pics were 5800. the 11.34 @ 121 was accually a hot lap lol

That's sick! Are you getting under 1.6's? Stock clutch? Thanks!
no I get 1.62-1.65s the 3.55s are holding it back at this power lvl. yep stock clutch

Awesome! I actually have been thinking about going with 3.55's instead of the 3.73's that are in mine. I think it's too much gear for this crazy low gear ratio manual. Looks like it works great at the strip too. What headers are you running? Any weight redux?

the 3.55 s are the thing that's holding my 60s back I'm gonna put more gear in it and better shocks over the winter. Nothing major ie driveshaft wheels spare tire and the suspension from bmr. Still has full interior and everything else

Nice work! Glad to see someone not afraid of the mt-82. Whats the run down on the rear suspension? I'll be ordering parts soon for the winter upgrades.

Impressive! I need to get these Steeda springs and Koni Yellows off mine and get something not quite as stiff. You and a few others have got me itching to see what mine will do on some tires.
