HELP disappointing time slips!!!!

[skiwesser]

dang mike , see I was hoping for at least 820-8.30's as my car is kinda heavy 3330 w/me in it.
Comp ratio I guess to be around 10to1-10.25to1

8.20's to 8.30's should be cake. I am in the 7's @3000ft.

Find a dyno. A dyno graph will tell us more than track times.

thats about what my car weighs! i had weight it once and was 3225 befroe i had done anything.

these times that me and dark are runnign we're using slicks and doing rev limiter launches! at least thats how i was doing it.

get that thing on a dyno and lets see whats it's making then we'll see if it's the car or something else

I launch at 4-5 thouand RPM's any more than that and I would spin bad on the 8 inch slicks.

Are you missing your stang yet Mike?

i was running 8 inch slicks and would hold revs at 4000-5000 and when second yellow went out i'd mat the gas and side step the clutch on trhe lsty yellow. low to mid 1.6 60 foot times.
