I made 297 as well and ran 118mph. I only ever got 1 run though with no boost off the line and ran a 12.4. Can't imagine what it feels like launching with a transbrake! Keep up with the good work mate and see if you can crack a 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant stress enough when you are bottom bulbing you cannot anticipate the light stare at the 3rd amber like your life depends on it dont count down the tree you might get lucky but it is very inconsistant watching the bulbs.. if you are leaving on the 3rd amber and you are consistantly going red there are ways to counter it rpm is one big way dropping 200 rpm on a launch is roughly 0.007 these are my figures they may very. or another way is to take front tyre pressure out..watch my video of me vs my dad I drill him on the tree and do a pb that's why im so excited at the end. you can see my technique here..I recommend disconecting your brake switch because the guy who starts the tree will ask you wtf are you doing I will take a picture of the switch tomorrow. if anyone needs a hand at the track on a wednesday night im more then willing to help just inbox me I love crewing and racing..enjoy staging shallow and flickering lights and getting the best et possible. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
