The official 1/4 mile time list
#211
No billet shafts, no boosted launches. I might try a 4psi or so launch next time. My turbo's not laggy by any means (it's at 40psi before it hits 2nd gear) but with the tighter converter it just doesn't really lite off until 2nd.

Go for it BB,,,,,, "What's the worst that could happen?"
I run 15.5's with 2WD, DD2's and an EZ and really have to baby it off the line till after the change into 2nd or them skinny 245's go up in smoke.
You ought to be able to coax a little more out of it with your mods.

Yeah, I just read on your other thread where you stated your 60' time which I agree is killing you. I just thought you might make it up a little on the big end of the track. I'm looking for a set of rims and slicks to see if I can improve a little. The biggest help for me would be more practice at getting consistant coming out of the hole. I don't have billets either and will probably worry if I get some tires that hook up. Even though I'm only at 300 hp,,,,, I imagine that might be enough to do some damage if I come out the hole to hard.
My biggest help would be to stay as far away from the dragstrip as possible!

Nothing has changed as far as the upgrades and still on stock tires.
