first time testing out MT ET Streets (VID)
just like the title says. crappy launch and bad 60', was hoping to break into the 7's. tires were set at 20 psi and launch control was at 4500 rpms. was gonna do another run w/ launch control set at 5500 rpms but while i was doing a burnout the engine back fired and messed up the wastegate. but all is good now, hopefully i can go do a 1/4 run today.
EDIT: here's my 1/4 run from today. didn't do as good as i was hoping for but did get a good launch though. clutch pooped on me on 2nd run so i had to let off early.
1/4 - 12.6 @ 112mph
1/8 - 8.2 @89mph
1.962 60'

Looks like it still trapped 98mph? The power is there just need more seat time and figure out your sweet spot.

Car sounds great man. Once you nail the launch it's going to turn some great times.

actually it was only 88 mph. for some reason w/ these new tires my mph has gone down compare to street tires.

The better 60 ft's and traction the less mph you will have but faster ET's
.
BTW are you making similar power in these runs compared to your sig whp? The clutch is probably your biggest drawback at the moment from low 12's.
