your 60ft and 330ft times are absolutely that cause of your inconsistent times. see how the 330ft slowed down by almost 3 tenths? I'm guessing your best run, it hooked up in 2nd gear and pulled hard right? and your other runs, you hit 2nd and it spun.

If you dont use slicks, or atleast dragradials, then you should not have your nitrous on in 1st gear. Its a waste of nitrous in 1st gear with street tires because all it does is spin. My suggestion would be to hit the switch about halfway through 2nd gear, and go from there.

But if you really want to see some good ET/mph's you are gonna need traction of some sort. Street tires and drag strips are not a fun mix, you'll go home dissappointed most of the time.

Chris_H, how were you launching on those slicks to get 2.0 60ft times? Dump the clutch at 3500-4000 and you'll have 1.7's easy.
