I don't brag unlike yourself. One day you'll get whooped and then you'll shut your mouth and make your sig as small as possible...

Can I get props on that one?

EDIT: Oh wait, you already changed your sig :roflmbo:

It's called trash talk buddy... All in good fun...

Why would I post that I ran a 13.9 in my sig if I was worried about bragging!!! 13.9 is nothing to brag about... But I do want to get it down closer to what it should be... Some guys are running 11's in an auto with 350rwkw... I know I will never get that in my car, but am kinda hoping to get 12's... Only comes with practice, that's why I wanna get down there...

Still trying to work out how to launch it... Different to track racing... If I give it too much, it wheelspins, and if I dont give it enough it bogs down... I know, I need better tyres, but I would prefer to run it in full street trim... No point saying you can run a 13 flat if you need to change the wheels... At the moment on the road I get wheelspin in first three gears... Mostly at high rpm...

Ah well... Will see how I go this week... I might have to change to Maxxis tyres... Had them on my XR8 and was very happy with them. Hooked up well...

Oh and re the you dont brag... I apologise "Mr F6, Leather, Brembos, Premo sound... :blaah: " :stirthepot:

Please, it's Mr Arse Peck Esq.

You don't need better tyres for the moment, you need to ride your clutch a little more in between that spot where it spins and the spot where it bogs. Once you get the ride right you'll smash your 60' down and thus run a nice low 13 or high 12. It all depends on your MPH in the end :stirthepot:

Yeah... I have done that and got a way better launch... But wont that shag my clutch? Its a Mal Woods option 3...

When I have done it, I get a little bit of a burnt clutch smell... How much does it cost to rebuild his clutch? Just in case I brake something :-)

Did you go with the 11" clutch? It would be very difficult to break that! It depends on the cutch plate(s)

Just test it out and see how you go. Once you get the launch right, all you need to do is put some semi's on and change the revs of which you ride the clutch and you'll get a better time...

My money is on R-SPEC plus his car is an F6

It won't matter if you are at the strip on the street or on a track, Mr Arse Peck Esq. FTW :stirthepot:
