Default Re: tips?

I am not great with the 1/8 mile, most my experience is with quarter times. But I will give you what I see, and hopefully some of the track regulars will take over from there.

A 2.5 60ft is no good, and that is killing your times right there. Is your car only spinning one tire? Also, most will tell you to avoid the water box all together, and just do a small (dry) burn out to clean them off before your run. Don’t feel bad, I did the same thing at the track when I was 17.

Get a better reaction time to go with better 60 ft times, and I think you will be surprised at the times you get then (especially compared to the current times).
