1st time at track times

Well went to the track today only 1/8 mile track. Here are my two best passes.

1: Reaction time: .688, 60 ft time: 2.05, 1/8 time: 9.28, 74.26 mph
2: Reaction time: .707, 60 ft time: 2.01, 1/8 time: 9.24, 74.17 mph

So need to work on reaction times and get a Smarty Sr.

Respectable times for oversized tires and just a Jr. Nice looking rig!
No offense but, you do know reaction times are unimportant... unless your head to head, right?

More meaningful to work on building same boost for each launch so you can better compare runs!

What boost are you launching at? Depending on Your boost and HP your 60' time will make all the difference.

When I was running the setup that had me at 530HP I would launch at 15-17 LB boost in 4wd with tow/haul on. 1.64 60' and a 12.68 1/4 @ 106....but that was right before I grenaded my flex plate. However, when I turn a 1.70 60' I can only clear a 12.97 @ 104....
