I will dedicate a Map 5 run just for you, sir.

gowarriors and Mjaspreet I'm for sure going back to Sac Raceway this Saturday. You guys are more than welcome to join if your schedule allows.

That's a solid pass with plenty of room for improvement. If you can get the 60' down to 1.6-1.7 secs then you've got yourself a 10 second pass.

Try lining up behind a car with full slicks or DRs next time, so you can piggyback on the sticky substance with your pass.

I have no idea how to launch right, my 60 fooot is still terrible haha. Ill try piggybacking some drivers with dragradials next time. When you use launch control, do you modulate the throttle after the clutch drops, or just keep it planted? The car next to me was a Evo that bogged when trying to launch. Whats your recommended tire psi? The car is more than capable with 130 traps, its just needs a driver mod to hit 10s.

I'll make you a deal. If the Warriors can get past the Rockets in the WCF, then I will provide free driver mod consultation via text or PM

nars3000 The warriors will make it past the rockets... It will be close but they will squeak by.

I am also trying to get into the 10's but don't quite have enough power to get there. It is hot in Texas right now, so I think I am going to have to wait until the fall to see anything in the 10's. The tracks are prepped really well here though, 1.73 60 foot on a kumho ps91 tire lol

That's crazy!

[gowarriors]

No love for your Home state Rockets team? Warriors got their hands full, could swing either way. Lets bump the deal to private lessons at the track if we win the championships. Seriously give me Hoosier DR and Ill still cut 2.3 second 60 foot times

lol I am a Dallas sports fan, and when it comes to Basketball we have nothing.

I did just get tickets to game 7 though, so I am hoping they keep trading W's

I'm new to this platform but figured out the LC at the track. However, I'm unable to reduce the 3k rpm launch on my 18 m4. I do know if you keep your gas pedal planted doing your entire run, the car will shift itself. Some members recommend manually shifting 3,4,5 gears at 6200 after take off. I need a driver's course myself although I have been drag racing for more than 35yrs.
