I was doing 110mphMine had, 311rwkw in June 2006 11.91@118.28 mph on a 1.98 60 foot, used toyo ra-1 proxes.Mods were injectors, APS exhaust, walbro, bmc filter and custom tune.Shift your gears at 5500 to 5700rpm no later, I can remember we went from 12.68 to 11.91 just with playing with the gear shifting changes.

That's what I did anyway and got my fastest time. Oh yeah, I smoked the sh*tter out of my factory dunlops to get this time aswell.11.8 @ 120mph, 2 sec 60'.

Doogstar Member 276 Member For: 18y Posted 24/10/08 11:19 PM Share Posted 24/10/08 11:19 PM I would suggest that you don't worry too much about the lights and your reaction time, you are racing yourself not the guy in the next lane (you will most likely beat him anyway), leave that for the DYO competitions. Just concentrate on your launch. Don't stall it up too early wait til both cars are staged, if you stall too early and have to wait too long for the lights, the ECU thinks there is a problem and drops the revs. How hard you should accelerate will depend on how much traction you have, if the wheels are spinning you are going nowhere. On street tyres you don't need a big burnout, just enough heat to allow the tyres to grip, if you drove there on them they will have some heat still, but waiting around makes them go cold. As mentioned, dropping the tyre pressures will help your launch, but add rolling resistance after that. So the idea is drop the pressures ONLY enough to allow grip on the launch. It will be different on every car, but on the rear I would suggest about 28psi, if you still have wheelspin drop it down to 25psi, on the front you want the tyres to be inflated high (less rolling resistance) try 40psi.On your launch, throttle down to about 90% and then 100% as soon as you start to move.

jetute Donating Members 4,553 Member For: 20y 10m 26d Gender: Male Location: brisbane Posted 25/10/08 05:00 AM Share Posted 25/10/08 05:00 AM have a run in in both modes (manual shifting and auto peformance mode)... this way you will get yourself a comparison..Do not watch the lights and do not race the guy next to you... infact let him go and then take off a second or so later... this way you get to concentrate on what you are doing and this will yield the best time for you in the end... only race others when you are a seasoned racer and have gear changes and launches set etc.most of all have fun... the times will come with practice!!!
