Re: I went to the track
Like I said before, J-man. You just need more practice.. try taking some weight off the car, do what I do, try going on a diet.. it'll make you and your car quicker.

Re: I went to the track
reaction time doesn't mean jack shit unless you're bracket racing. What was the 60'?

Re: I went to the track
yea, you're prolly spinning a half a second plus away when you launch. i'd look into a pair of drag radials.

Re: I went to the track
Nothing wrong with that.

Practice is needed, but at least you are in the 13's. Some guys run 14's with them on their first time out.

If you are hopping, you need suspension not tires.

Reaction doesn't mean anything on a test session.
