Went to the track for the 1st time.... I need help
Well I went to the track for the first time and it was a lot of fun. My driving skills need some help. Actually, it's just my launch technique that seems to suck....
I have 245/50 BFGoodrich Comp TAs on the rear. I was launching at 2,000 RPMs and spinning all the way through first gear. I was posting consistent 2.6 second 60" foot times. I know my set-up isn't really for the drag-strip, but I know it can be better.
My best run of the night was a 14.2 @ 101.5 MPH. I was over 101 MPH all night, but my times sucked. I know it's all in the launch, so what are some tips to better my 60 foot times? With an little traction I think I can get to the low 13s.
Are the BFGoodrich drag radials worth a crap?
Thanks
